How do you turn off the registration wizard?

Problem: I've registered, but I still get the registration wizard appear every time Ability is started.

Or: I don't have an internet connection on the PC with Ability installed - how do I turn off the registration wizard?

Solution: The registration wizard is switched off by the "Registration Complete" button on the last page of the wizard. So, to turn it off, follow these steps:

Logon to Windows with an administrator account.
When the "Register" dialog appears, select Register Now.
An attempt will be made to connect to our website. Whether this fails or succeeds, close down the browser.
A second dialog is displayed - select Registration Complete.

Note: Prior to version 4.3.000 of Ability, if you re-installed Ability, it will ask you to re-register. Select Start/Programs/Ability Office/Tools/Check for Updates and install the latest version and this will no longer happen.
