I just got a new PC box at work. Flare was reinstalled on it. When I opened Flare for the first time, I was asked for a license code. Long story short: I unknowingly entered someone else's license code. Now, every time I open Flare, I'm asked to go through the registration steps, and the process always ends in error. After I cancel, it appears I'm able to work in Flare, but I don't want to go through a defective registration process each time I open the product, nor do I want to take chances working on someone else's license.
Our IT department was going to uninstall and reinstall the product, but it's been a couple of days since I've heard from them, and I'm falling behind. Is there any way for me to get back to the license code-entry step, so that I can make it easy for IT and simply ask them for my license code?
Thanks.

Re: Need to re-enter license code
I contacted support a while back to do this in v5; this should do it...
