I can’t enter my registration code; it says “Not logged in as Admin”

If you are running Windows 7, or Windows 8 you may receive the message “You are not logged in as Administrator” when trying to enter your registration code. This will prevent you from typing in your code. To resolve this, do the following:

1.

Right-click the SONAR shortcut on the Windows desktop, and select Run as Administrator on the pop-up menu.

2.

If prompted with a message “Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?”, click Yes.

3.

Enter your registration code and click Complete.

If you do not yet have a registration code, please go to www.cakewalk.com/Register to register your product with us, and we will send you the registration code.
