Abbyy Error: Failed to Run Non-Developer Licenses in Developer Library

Failed to run non-developer licenses in developer library

This document applies for both Abbyy FineReader and Abbyy FlexiCapture Engine. 

 

This Error message occurs if Abbyy activities are used on a computer that has developer installation of FineReader/FlexiCapture Engine while the Protection.Developer.dll* library is in <installation folder>\Bin

 

Solution:

Remove the Protection.Developer.dll file from the Bin folder or rename the file. If there is a need to work with the developer license on the same machine, put the file back into the Bin folder or change its name back to the original one
