Due to numerous problems I've encountered, and that colleagues are also experiencing, with your licensing system, why isn't it possible to disconnect licenses indefinitely from our Capture account, or why isn't there a dongle system? I regularly find myself in situations where I'm traveling and unable to use my license because it's connected to computers that aren't with me.
Today, I'm ready to quit Capture because of this system.

Hello,

understand, but totaly disagree with a physical dongle, that could be forgot or stolen anywhere; and waiting days or weeks to  buy a newone.  In my opinion, electronic licences, are powerfull, just put it on your drobox, or USB key if you want a physical one. 

Like your dongle, when you travel for a gig, you don,t miss it, so, dont miss to disconnect your computer before leaving. 

Then, you are already able to disconect your licence attached on a computer  directly online via your personal platform on website, so...

I would like to hear more about how you work Paulo. It sounds like you regularly use Capture on many different computers. I guess you are also editing on all of them, since you are installing your licence key file on them

I'm sure you have discovered that you can uninstall it and then install on another computer. Based on that I guess you're after being able to remote deactivate installations? That possibility would require installations to regularly call home to verify their status, which would likely create a massive problems for computers that are not connected to the Internet.
