Installing on Hyper-V Machine, Invalid Serial Number

Post by PhilBenson »

Info

Product, version and build:
5.5.150_030718
64 bit Powershell Studio 2018


Operating system:
Windows 2016 Server (LTSC) running in a Hyper-V environment on a Windows 2016 DataCenter OS

After installing the application and attempting to use the Serial Number I requested for the virtual machine I get the following error as shown
Untitled.png
Untitled.png (4.15 KiB) Viewed 4438 times
in the attachment.

As the machine *is* a virtual machine (Hyper-V) this is confusing...

Cheers
Phil

Are you prompted for a Virtual Machine key? Can you provide a screenshot of the trial dialog you see?

Hi Alexander,
no I am not prompted for a Virtual Machine Key, it is the normal registration dialouge box.
It's as if the virtual machine is not recognised as one...

Well, lucky you :D Then you do not need to enter a trial key. Just hit continue.

I am afraid I do not understand. The trial is not working?

Yes,
but it stated that I can only have a mximum of 5 controls on a UI...
Nevermind, I'm only "palying" in my Lab SCCM environment so it is not that much of a problem...

Cheers
