Have searched the rest of the forum but none of the posts seem related to my problem. I leave the SD7 dongle in my office PC, but sometimes I need to work late at home on my laptop via windows remote desktop. Unfortunately SD7 says logged in, but behaves same as in demo mode without saving etc. Screen shots attached with the pop-up window on start-up and normal window showing the "signed in as" normally and save, save as etc etc.

Any help please? Thanks in advance.

The dongle-based security system views RDP as a potential threat so fails safe: multiple RDP clients accessing a single machine would infringe licensing. If you attempt to start Stardraw Design 7 via RDP, license privileges will be denied.

You must start the application locally and, having done so, you should be able to access the running program through an RDP client.

Therefore you could leave SD7 running on your machine or, as is recommended, keep the dongle with you to access the application on whichever local machine you wish to use.

Kind regards,
