Hello,
I’m getting “Evaluation version” screen for C1.Win.C1Input (4.0.20191.359) every time I debug my project (added as reference). With other C1 controls I don’t have any trouble. Please advise.
Regards,

Hi Alfredo,
The evaluation message pop up appears in the following two cases:
Your system does not have a valid license key for the controls.
The entries of the licenses.licx file does not match with the controls used in the application, or the licenses file either doesn’t exist, contains wrong information, or is not configured correctly.
To create the correct licenses.licx file, you can use the LicxGenerator tool.

If you are using the old version key, then you can check if the key is activated properly using the C1LicenseDeActivation utility as suggested here.

I also can see that you have the new format serial key of the latest version and as you are using an older version, so you need to perform the steps in the given documentation to learn how to license old versions of controls using new serial keys

Hello Prabhat Sharma,
Thanks for your help. Fixed issue with LicxGenerator tool. Apparently licenses.licx file was missing entries for C1.Win.C1Input.
