Can't activate ObjectDock Plus v2 (PROBLEM SOLVED)

from Stardock Forums

Hey there,

I recently purchased ObjectDock Plus v2 via paypal and after the purchase I received the download together with my Product Serial Number.
After I finsished installing it asked for my Email and Serial. But when I try to continue after I filled in my Email/Serial it says:

"Product Activation could not write the activation signature"

I also get another error saying:

"Could not run SDActivate.exe"

I tried uninstalling/installing again but I get the same problems.

I looked in Impulse and it said I had the free version. So I uninstalled again from there and tried to register my product from Impulse.
But when using the Product Serial Number I received by purchasing ObjectDock Plus v2 it won't register either ObjectDock Plus or ObjectDock Plus v2.
But when I use the serial it will only register ObjectDock Free ....

When i go to: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products it says I have:

ObjectDock Plus v2
Version: 2.01.0 [18.0 MB]
Serial: xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx

I tried downloading again but still can't activate it ....

Try running the app as admin.  Let me know if there is a difference.

Well I did what you said, but I turned off my AV-software and firewall aswell and it registered :)

I don't know if just "run as admin" would have worked because I think I tried that before.

But many thanks for your help.
