Program with license key specific to computer won't run over remote desktop connection
I have a program (Minitab 16开发者_如何学Python) that is licensed, registered, and activated on a computer on my network, and I need to be able to run that program via remote desktop. I thought it would still run as it is still being used on that computer, but apparently it knows that I'm logged in remotely and will not run. Is there a way to do this? I know it is somewhat ambiguous, but I guess I'm wondering how the program knows I'm logged in remotely and how to stop it from knowing.
Edit: I have a single user license and the EULA states
A.2 This Software may be loaded on only one computer and used by only one user at a time. If the computer on which this Software is loaded is attached to a network, this Software must not be accessible by any other user on such network.
As pointed out below, the EULA does not define computer/machine/user/licensee/etc, so its hard to tell whether I should be able to do this or not, but regardless, it seems that I can't; and so, I'll search for other methods of accomplishing a similar effect, and to best adhere to the license terms.
I have a single user license.
Have you tried VNC?
I suspect that the check could be performed against Windows user impersonation. There's not enough useful information to speculate further, though.
You are bound by the terms of the program license. If you believe that this usage does not constitute a breach of the license terms, then you should contact the vendors of that program.
We will not advise you about ways to break the law.
