Hi @rocksteady and @DavidR , I’m sorry for the lack of updates on this topic. As of today, we are still trying to fix this issue. It turned out to be more challenging than anticipated due to ongoing changes in our licensing systems.
This is certainly not an intentional experience. Users should be able to extend their free license just fine (in fact, that part is already fixed, but the messaging is still a challenge).
We apologize for the delay in solving the free license registrations. We will keep you posted.
