Hello everybody!
I had my laptop hard drive cloned and changed. Unfortunately, 1st time I switch it on with the new HD, I get an error message from Studio: my licence has expired... I logged in to my SDL account and tried every method to desactivate/activate my licence but nothing worked (error messages on the SDL website)
Any idea?

I had a similar problem not long along. I wrote a note in the SDL-forum, and got in touch with them there. They need to reset your license.

Contact installation helpline Apr 10, 2021

SDL has a free installation helpline, they can sort it out for you. They are usually pretty quick to respond, but maybe not over the weekend.
