Hello,
I bought Trados 7 Freelance last year and am just starting to use it (was on maternity leave). I installed the software and want to use winalign to create a database of some of my past translations. However, I now get the message that Winalign is only in a demo mode. I thought WinAlign came with Trados... Am I wrong there? If not, any idea why I get this message and how to fix it?

Perhaps just a license issue. Jun 1, 2006

Perhaps WinAlign doesn't realise where to look for the softkey.

Go to Help > About Trados WinAlign - then you get a screen with a button down to the right saying 'License Manager'.

See if your softkey license is listed here, and if not, you should add it, obviously.

In this picture there is also a button saying 'Test License'.
This button is used to check if WinAlign recognises the license.

Hope it helps ;o)
