Starting with v1.70, the support of old-style licenses is terminated.
There are two ways for you now - you can buy a new-style license or you can use an old version of PartyCaption (v1.69b or any earlier version). If you use the old-style license, further program updates will not be available to you.
v1.69b will be supported at least until the beginning of spring, maybe longer.
After that, all versions released since the summer of 2016 will no longer be supported.
If by this time you do not switch to a new-style license, then you can only use PartyCaption v1.45c or any lower version. With these versions, you can use our license indefinitely.
New users pay for the license every year, and I considered it unfair to them to keep lifetime licenses on old terms. For this reason, after a year and a half their functionality is limited - they can all be used infinitely, but only with a limited number of versions of the program. The announcement of the upcoming changes was posted on the website and in the program (on the License tab) after switching to a new license system a year and a half ago.
