Gig Performer Essentials v5.3.3 Release Notes

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE LICENSING SYSTEM

In addition to various enhancements, this version of Gig Performer 5 will no longer require you to deactivate and reactivate Gig Performer in most cases following an operating system update.

You will need to activate this version once before using it. Although it is not necessary, before installing this update, we suggest that you first deactivate your current version of Gig Performer to ensure that you don’t lose an activation. However, if deactivation fails for any reason, you can ignore the error. You will not lose any activations..

Once you have deactivated your current version, proceed with the installation of this update. The Gig Performer installer will guide you through the remaining steps.

Note: Your existing license key will still allow up to 5 concurrent activations.
