Hex Workshop activation fails with a 403 Forbidden server error

Hex Workshop’s Activation Wizard may be unable to contact the BreakPoint Software License Server due to a corporate proxy server or http content filtering.

To work around this, you can try:

  1. Try manually setting the Activation Wizard's proxy settings by pressing the "Proxy Settings..." button during activation. More information on Product Activation is available in Hex Workshop’s online help.
  2. Alternatively, manually download and install your license file. After downloading the license, use the Activation Wizard to import your license.

If problems persist, please email support@bpsoft.com.
