I'm attempting to install Delphi 10.4 Community Edition on a Windows 10 machine which previously had the full version installed (that license is now expired). The previous licence was an Academic licence and these have to be renewed annually. I've followed the instructions from activation.embarcadero.com:
However, after I do that, the Registration Wizard closes and I get this pop-up:
No valid licence information found for Embarcadero (r) Delphi 10.4. You must provide a valid serial number to use Embarcadero (r) Delphi 10.4. Do you want to run the registration wizard again?
Registration code 12963955
You are not licensed to use Embarcadero (r) Delphi 10.4.
In case the problem is being caused by a remnant of the previous, Academic version, I've deleted
and I still get the problem.
So I'm stuck. How to get it to accept the registration file and get the installation to proceed?
