Unknown error is caused by blocked access to the computer operating system or network connection.

This may be due to a computer policy on the network that blocks ability for our Licensing service to properly function, or a Internet connection that is blocked or redirected 

• On the first run of the software when a Trial License activation is attempted
• On activation or deactivation of the software license.

This can also occur when your system has an inactive Netbios, which our licensing requires to generate an ID for the machine activated.

Possible Resolutions

• Ensure Netbios is enabled on your machine
• Run Imatest software product or Imatest license manager using an Administrator account
• If internet access is blocked or redirected, setup your Proxy Server or perform an Offline Activation

If All Else Fails

• Run the License Problem Diagnostics utility, and send the results to support@imatest.com.
• Try running Imatest on a different computer that doesn’t have the extra computer or network restrictions applied.

Imatest is proud to announce the official release of its new 4.0 image quality testing software. The Imatest 4.0 upgrade includes a number of refinements including enhanced automation capabilities and a more robust image quality testing experience. (more…)

When your software license data is updated on our servers, your software will need to be re-activated in order to get that updated license information to your computer.

If you are having problems running the latest version of Imatest 4.0, and you have purchased after November 1 2013, then you will need to deactivate and reactivate the software to update your license information.

Deactivation Instructions:  Online or Offline

Activation Instructions:  Online or Offline

After you have completed the above deactivation and reactivation steps, you can restart the software and your updated license information should then be properly read.
