Safari Pedals Plugin Activation Troubleshooting (PC)

This guide helps you resolve common activation issues.

---

1. Offline Activation Message

Sometimes the plugin may temporarily fail to detect an internet connection, even when your computer is online.

Workarounds:

1. Open the plugin and interact with the activation window repeatedly:

   • Minimize or close and reopen the plugin several times.

   • Click outside the plugin window or resize it — this can remove the “offline” prompt.

2. Be patient — activation timing varies: some plugins accept the serial after a few clicks, others may take up to a minute.

3. Make sure your computer is connected to the internet during the first activation.

Tip: After the initial online activation, you can use the plugins offline without issues.

2. Update the Plugin Version

Updating to the latest version often resolves activation errors.

Steps:

1. Download the latest version from:
   https://safaripedals.com/pages/Downloads-Page

2. Follow the instructions in the included ReadMe file.

3. Enter your serial number when prompted.

Installer Notes:

• The installer includes all plugins, but you can choose only the ones you need.

• Mac: During installation, uncheck plugins you don’t want.

• Windows: Copy only the relevant plugin folder you need.

3. Initial Activation Requirements

• Your computer must be online for the first activation.

• Open each plugin GUI at least once to ensure proper activation.

• After the initial activation, plugins will continue to work offline.

4. Non-English Windows Usernames

Activation issues may occur if your Windows username contains non-English characters.

Solution:

1. Rename your Windows user folder through your Microsoft account:

   • Go to https://account.microsoft.com and sign in.

   • Open Your info → Edit name.

   • Change your name to use English letters only.

2. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

3. Check that the plugin folder exists in your system.
