This error means the license entry in the registry has become corrupt. To fix it, do the following:

1. Click on Start | Run.
2. In the Run dialog, type:
   

   regedit

   then click OK.

3. In the Registy Editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Century Software.
4. You’ll see a License1 key. You may also see License2, License3, etc., up to a maximum License9. Delete all License# keys one at a time, but don’t delete anything else.
5. When all the License# keys have been deleted, close the Registry Editor.
6. Run TinyTERM’s License Manager to re-enter your serial number and activation key.

You may also be running into a Unicode issue, as described in this article. The only workaround in this case is to remove Unicode support, then go through the steps above.
