• Visual C# User name missing after product activation

  Can anyone tell me how to add my user name to a Visual Studio Express product after activating the product For example, in Visual C# 2005 Express Edition Beta 2, when I select 'Help' from the Menu bar and choose 'About ...' in the upper-left corner it says: Licensed to: Unknown User Name.

• Visual C# Problem permiting global shortcut keys

  I was programming a program that would hide itself at the press of Ctrl-Space and show itself when Ctrl-Space was pressed. However, the program has to have focus or this won't work. Is there a way to permit such a shortcut press while using another program without clicking on its task bar button I got that to work properly, but now it won't even respond to the keypress after registering them. Upon commenting the code off, however, the program will respond again to the keypress. When the program ends, the keypress is unregistered, so I don't think that will be a problem. (To avoid any confusion, I am the same ...Show All
