Reaper user on Windows PC. Every time I open a project using Anplesound guitars, the VST doesn't work saying I have 0 days of demo left and must activate. I then activate them and have to reload the project, but all then works fine.

I have the plugins installed on two machines which - based on my reading of the license file - is legal. But, it seems it will only let me activate the plugins on one machine as it deactivates the plugins on the other machine.

Does anybody have a solution to this?

Have you contacted Ample Sound about this?

Hmm...the Ample Sound subforum here on KVRaudio don't have a sticky about license. It ought to.
For a single plugin you; download. Install plugin. Install library. Let your daw scan for the vst. When found you put the plugin on a track and open it. Iirc the activation window pops up. You click on the activate button. You fill in your user-id and your password. It's the same as the account login.
If you are connected to the internet you just once again click activate and it's done.
It's Ample Sound themself that control the activation.
While they say max two activations on the same license they don't mention if that is at the same time.
There is a mention of switching license once every six months?

Here is what Salfran is referring to:

Their installation PDF does have an OFFLINE activation. That could be a solution to get around the online activation. In a nutshell, what I understand is that you can activate all your products with a single license on up to two computers. In order to switch a computer out, you have to contact them. Your computers are not activating or deactivating cyclically. They activate once and that's that. It seems like it may be something else? You need to contact them for sure. That's all aI got.
...and the electron responded, "what wall?"

Thanks for the help folks. I'll try the offline method, but I'm generally getting used to reactivating on whichever computer I'm using at the time; though its a pain in the butt...

I have never activated from the plugin itself. AFAIK you have to use the Ample Sound Activation Manager for that.

Since you're on windows, make sure you install or setup the plugin to run as administrator.
