Reply to Temporarily Disable Fences? in Fences WinCustomize Forums

There should be a checkbox option in the 'Tools' section of the configuration that will disable Fences. Depending on your version, it may be in the 'More tools' subsection.

Reply to Corporate Firewall hopping? in Stardock Central Support Stardock Forums

You may already know this, and I only mention it as a temporary workaround, but anything Stardock Central would install, you can get an installer for from here: http://download.stardock.com/ That way, while you try to get SDC up and running, you can at least get your stuff installed.

[quote who="Leo in WI" reply="6" id="3152055"]It's a splinter of the original OpenOffice code, think they split at around 3.1 or so, IIRC.

Reply to Product Activation failed in ObjectDock Stardock Forums

Specifically, run the program as admin, not the installer. The issue is that the folder it's trying to write the activation signature file to isn't allowing the file write operation due to permissions issues. Running the program as admin allows that to happen, as the program is calling the activation, not the installer.
