Causes and Fixes
PES V3.1 License will corrupt followed by installation of VijeoCitect(VJC) V3.0 because of the following reasons:
1.PES V3.1 installs Floating License Manager V1.0.0.0.
2. VJC V7.30 installs 1.0.2.0 which overwrites V1.0.0.0 without informing the user.
Steps to Recover the Corrupt License of PES V3.1:
1. Manually uninstall 1.0.2.0 (which will cause VJC Soft licensing to not be usable)
2. Re-install V1.0.0.0 from the PES installer package(PSXAS_V3.1_SP1_Official .ISO
\LicenseManagers\FloatingLicenseManagerSetup_PE.exe).
Note that this file will need to be copied on a read/write location, and not run from the iso (read only)
3. Finally, redo the license configuration described in the Process Expert Licensing Guide.
