I have contacted support with this issue and they have always been very helpful. I am wondering if anyone else has lost their authorization out of the clear blue. I first thought it was windows updates, but I am beginning to think that something might be in the program that could be causing it. I think this is the 3rd or 4th time this has happened. I use 2 computers for finale and really don't need to unauthorize and reauthorize. Fortunately I still have the authorization of 2014, but it is odd with 2015.

TIA

Yes, it has started happening to me on my Windows 10 machine running Finale 25. Today, I had to authorize for the third time this week. I always receive an email confirming the authorization, and then a few days later, it forces me to go through the process again.

Tech support was of great help. Basically, you create another admin user, log into that account, register Finale, then unregister it. Then go back to your original log in and register with your original log in. It worked great. MM is aware of the issue.
