What does the message "Too Many Installs" mean?

All of the other CAT companies use a hardware key to protect their software from illegal copying of the software. Their software will not work unless this hardware key is plugged into the computer. You only get one hardware key and you must transport that key between each computer you use. For example, if you have a computer at work and one at home, you must carry the hardware key back and forth between the two computers in order to use your software. If you get home and realize that you forgot your key, you will be unable to work. If you lose your key, you will have to purchase a new key, usually at the cost of the entire software package.

AristoCAT uses a different method of protecting it's software. One that allows you to install and use the software on up to three computers without having to carry around any additional devices. If you attempt to install the software on additional computers you will get this message. In most instances, you will get this message because you purchased a new computer, had to reinstall the software on a computer which had to be repaired, et. cetera.

If you get this message, you can call AristoCAT and get an install code which will bypass the software protection and allow you to install the software, so that you will never be in a situation where you cannot work. And every 18 to 24 months, AristoCAT sends out an update which is a Master Load and you get all brand new installs. Note that the install code changes every hour, every day. You should only call for the install code when you are ready to install the software. You cannot get the code and install it at a later time.
