"It looks like there's a write permission preventing you from saving your activation details to our folder. This happens when SketchUp is installed without the correct permissions.

To fix it you'll need the sketchup installer. Download it and then right click > Run as Admin and pick repair."

Thank you for the help, but I ran the installation file as admin and selected repair. No change, the same error message occurs.I also see that my other lib fredo plugins are requiring paid subscription and I don't want this to happen for the rest of them but do use them often. I don't want to pay for another plugin just to have it not work. Any other ideas?

Correction: Thank you very much for your assistance. It seems I wrote the last reply hastily. I just needed to restart my computer. The activation worked after restart. Thank you again for your assistance.

I recently used the FredoGhost free trial and was very happy with it as a performance/productivity enhancing plugin. My free trial ran out and I purchased a perpetual license and followed the installation instructions. However, when I go to activate my license and select the file provided, it does not work and I am given an error message saying "Error in the License Validation Request to Sketchucation: ERROR_F05".

I'm looking for some help in getting this to work after paying for the product.

I've attached a screenshot of the error message and the file that was downloaded and I am selecting.

Please help so I can continue to work on files where I have created ghost objects already.

Thank you
