Running FoolCat in a VM is a Pro feature.
If you see this error when activating a trial, you're running FoolCat in a VM, or a Hypervisor process must be active in Windows.
If you see this error when activating a purchased license, you have a regular license or a Pro license that needs VM activations allowed on your license.
A step-by-step guide for disabling any-and-all Hypervisor (Hyper-V) and Virtual Machine features on your PC is available here:
If you have a regular license and need VM activations, upgrade your license in the License Manager, then reach out.
