Start11 evaluation period expired after 3 days

October 27, 2025 10:24 AM from

Hi all,

As the title says, I've installed Start11 on Friday (24/10), as I've upgraded it to Win11. This morning, when turning on the machine, Start11 tells me the evaluation period has expired. Any ideas on how to resume/reset evaluation? (I will most likely buy Start11, but I'd still like to be able to evaluate it for a bit)
