License sharing problem

Hello,

I tried pinging "microsoft.com" and telnet "microsoft.com 443" both of which were successful so I don't think it is a connection issue. Should I allow the windows app internet access from somewhere?

Hi,

Thanks for posting.  I am still trying to figure this one out - I think it must be to do with firewall or app settings on some devices.  I haven't managed to reproduce this error on any of my test kit, but I have had several reports of this error.  I think it might need a new app release to fix it.  But in the meantime please do check your machine settings (particularly the app/security capability settings for Store Apps in general and Freda in particular).  And if you do find a solution, please post here.

Thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Jim
