WX Security Key offer could be a trap.

WX Security Key offer could be a trap. Hello All, I have received some interesting information about the PCSoft Security Key offer. "PC SOFT will introduce a "Security Key" solution that uses your current dongle and is associated with an annual subscription." I am not sure if this refers to a current subscription type dongle or the conversion of an existing "use forever" dongle. I would never trust PCSoft to load any code into my existing "use forever" dongles to convert them from "use forever" to "use while you pay" The video on the French site mentions converting dongles so still not clear. For me it is academic as I have no intention of ever going to the subscription model.

for the time being we as a distributor didn't receive any English language information about that "security dongle" yet. Even the French web site doesn't mention it and its operational and legal context. Since there's no price of the "security dongle" mentioned, I think it is - currently - not available at all.]]> gpredl WinDev Forum Wed, 25 Feb 2026 07:46:58 +0100 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,799145,799145#msg-799145 WX Security Key offer could be a trap. https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,799145,799145#msg-799145
