What does it mean when a window prompts Serial Number in use?
SERIAL NUMBER IN USE; YOU CANNOT USE PEACHTREE BECAUSE IT HAS REACHED ITS MAXIMUM NUMBER OF USERS If you are receiving Serial Number in use, Another Peachtree user is using the same serial number, or Peachtree has reached its maximum number of users, do the following to correct this. If necessary, exit Peachtree. • Go to Task Manager by pressing the CTRL+ALT+DEL keys and on the Processes tab look for W3DBSMGR.EXE, click to highlight and choose End Task. • The W3DBSMGR.EXE file is the Pervasive database which sometimes takes time to end.
