    Hello everyone,

    I’m having an issue activating my SimTools v3 license on Windows 10.
    When I try to activate, I get this message:

    “The Date or Time on your PC appears to be incorrect. Please correct the problem and try again.”

    I’ve already tried the following:

    Verified that the system date, time, and time zone are all correct.

    Synchronized Windows time with the Internet time server (time.windows.com).

    Restarted the PC several times and retried the activation.

    Disabled antivirus and firewall temporarily.

    Checked my internet connection — it’s stable.

    Despite all that, the error still appears, and I can’t activate my license.

    Does anyone know what could cause this problem in SimTools v3 on Windows 10?
    Could it be related to a regional setting, SSL certificate issue, or a problem with the license server?

    Any advice or fix would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance!
