Version 2.6.2.1 Public Beta update has a new license management scheme that will allow you to reset the Activation yourself if you need to make any changes to your PC.

This is an update and must be installed over your current installation.

• When you start P2A the first time after installing the update, you should see an Activate button and a Deactivate button. (If you don't see those buttons, press the Register button and they should appear. )
• Enter your PayPal email and press the Deactivate button.
• Assuming the Deactivation works, press the Activate button. That should start the program.
• If all goes well, you should not see this license window again.
• Let me know at admin@pilot2atc.com if you have any problems getting it going.

In addition to the new license manager, this version:

• Fixes X-Plane Air traffic being shown as both air and ground traffic
• Adds an option to allow negative screen positions
• Fixes a bug causing incorrect climb restrictions
• Fixes some SID display issues
• Fixes other bugs in 2.6.2.0

Thanks to all who gave feedback during the Public Beta.
