I wonder if multiple instances of WLD run concurrently on the same PC without having the activation issue and violating the license.

I'm currently running multiple instance of WLP in VM but I guess WLD requires separate license for each VM installation.

This is particulary to your suggestion for the optimization issue discussed as follows:

QUOTE:
1. Create multiple Windows usernames on the same PC (no need in multiple licenses, just the Win-L multi-login feature),

2. Start a copy of Wealth-Lab in each one,
2.1. Copy your data and Strategy files to each user account's AppData folder

3. Change the CPU affinity for every running WLP process to each CPU core.

No license violation. Please give it a try and let us know if you had an activation issue.

I just gave it a try and WLD activated without any problem. Awesome!

I guess WLD recognizes it is being activated on the same computer thus 60 days activation restriction isn't applicable in this case?

Good to hear it works for you. Yes, it's the same PC where you activated so the restriction does not apply.
