Summary
The Trialware feature will no longer be supported after September 30, 2019.Synopsis
Projects authored using InstallShield 2014 and older versions will be unable to obtain new Trialware licenses after September 30, 2019.
Discussion
InstallShield versions 2014 and earlier include a feature called Trialware, which allows executable files to be wrapped and associated with a license. This limits how many times or for how long a product may be launched. This feature was removed from InstallShield starting with version 2015 and is no longer supported.
The server which serves the licenses necessary to enable this functionality will be decommissioned September 30, 2019. New Trialware licenses will cease to be served once this occurs and legacy versions of InstallShield will be unable to leverage the Trialware feature.
