    A year ago I bought an observatory which included a licensed copy of MaximDL V6.16. Naturally, that copy is registered in the name of the previous owner.

    Can the registration details be altered so that MaximDL now shows my name? I don't mind running regedit if that is what it takes but I do not want to pay anything. If it can't be done I'll just continue running the software under a pseudonym.

    Thank you for asking.

    You can only get support and upgrades if you formally transfer the license, as Colin indicated, and yes there is some modest cost involved in doing that.

    As long as the original owner did not keep a copy then you are in compliance with the license agreement. If would be helpful if you could send us the serial number via private message so we can put a note on the record.
