Issue

When trying to activate FineReader on another computer or after OS reinstallation the following message occurs:

This serial number cannot be activated automatically

Cause

This message appears when the serial number of the program you're trying to activate was blocked. This can happen for several reasons:

The serial number was activated very frequently
The serial number was used for the program upgrade
As a result of a violation of the end-user license agreement

Having re-built my failing Windows 10 computer, I have been unable to use Abbyy FineReader 11 as it is failing to register because it is saying I am trying to use the product on too many computers.

The serial number is of the form FPES-11xx-2xxx-xxxx-xxx9-9xx5

Can you help, please?

Hello. I installed Abby Fine Reader PRO 12 on a new computer and the activation was fine, I also put the upgrades. However, I then reinstalled Windows on that PC with a clean install, then installed Abby, but the activation didn't work after that. Please help. Thank you.
