Is anyone else having trouble getting free months on forscan? I am unable to retrieve the license key, they send me. It comes in on Trio Office Writer? I do not have that software. Any suggestions?
Thank you

From the FORScan app 'About' tab your selecting Load License Key? It should open your 'Load File' window, then, FORScan folder will be a selectable option.
The Extended Licenses folder should be there. The latest key should load when selected.

Be sure to run the latest version of FS..

We are talking about an active FORscan account, correct? Not sure I understand your comment..."trouble getting free months on forscan?"
We are talking about the extended license?

Extended License...
On my laptop,, the link FORScan provided for the extended license downloads as a WORD doc.
.I go to 'Downloads' and the Word doc is there. I copy the doc, then go to Local Disk 'C:' and then scroll to Program Files, (x86)
Scroll to FORScan, then open Extended License. Paste the Word doc there.
When the FORscan app is opened, then 'about', when Load License is selected, the file downloaded/pasted should be there to select,, and then on an app restart the Extended License will be listed showing Reg user, and valid to date ..

This is my procedure: Go to forscan.org
Generate free 2 months trial extend license key.
local c drive
program files (x86)
Forscan
no license key.
On the very first time I tried this forscan sent me back license key to download when I did an office software program called trio office came up and wanted me to buy the software. I have since uninstalled and re downloaded to see if there was a glitch. same thing office trio. and it wont send me another license to my email saying they sent one already.

Does the download show up in Documents/Downloads?

If so, copy it, paste it into the Program (x86) FORScan-Extended Licenses.
The license key needs to be moved from its download-copied,, and add/pasted to extended License box in FORScan in Programs.

Then, it should show up when the FORScan app is opened, about, Load License. The window should open with the key available...
