Problem Description:
I have been using a Trial License to evaluate STAAD.Pro; I decided to buy and I configured the license with a permanent site activation key. When I'm opening STAAD.Pro, I get a window indicating that I'm using a 'Non Commercial version'.
Solution:
Open STAAD.Pro; you will get a window similar to this.
Make sure that you select STAAD.Pro or STAAD.Pro Advanced (depending on what license you have) under the Full License. Uncheck the box that indicates that you are using a Trial License.
In case you do not get the 'Welcome to STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition Licensing' dialog box, since you have turned off the 'Display this dialog on startup', you can bring it back. Open STAAD.Pro, click on 'Configure' -> 'Options' , check the box 'Show Licensing Dialog'.
Click on ok and exit from STAAD.Pro. Next time when you open STAAD.Pro, you will get the STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition Licensing dialog box. Make the needful changes as mentioned above and you will be all set.
