Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I transfer my Petka 8.8 activation to a new computer?
A: Yes, but you must deactivate it first. In the Help menu, select "Deactivate License." Then install on the new PC and follow the activation steps. USB dongle users simply move the dongle.
Q: My Petka 8.8 says "Activation Required" even though I already activated it.
A: This happens if the license file was deleted by an antivirus scan or if a Windows update reset the registry keys. Re-apply your .lic file from the backup folder.
Q: Is there a free version of Petka 8.8?
A: No. However, the manufacturer often provides a 30-day trial version with limited functionality (e.g., maximum 50 saved documents). The trial cannot be extended. petka 8.8 activation
