I can't even use the trial software

[Pamela Ferdinand]

I just installed the trial software. I did about ten test recordings of 10-30 seconds each. Now all of a sudden, when I try to record I get "This is a trial demo version of Debut Video Capture Software Professional..." Blah blah blah. According to what I found online (not anywhere on the NCH website of course), the trial version is supposed to be good for 14 days. So why is it already not letting me use the trial after only 30 minutes??

 

I understand that it's telling me I can't use some feature. I had just messed with "Limit maximum recording time to," hidden the mouse cursor, and changed Video Compression settings to high quality. But when I got this error message, I changed the settings back to default and the error message still appears.

 

Thanks for any advice you can give!
