I’m having an activation issue with EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard ABOVE version 17.0

Iinstalled both versions on an offline PC and completely disconnected the internet cable. I followed the activation instructions correctly: ran the hosts file, copied the x64 medicine to the installation directory, ran the medicine successfully, and then used the medicine by selecting the installed program folder. The medicine also reported that the activation was successful.

However, when I launch EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, it shows as activated for only 5 seconds and then immediately reverts to the trial version.

Since the PC is completely offline and will never be connected to the internet, I’m wondering why the activation is being reverted. Is there any additional offline configuration required?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I use .

I tried to block all four of these files using Windows Firewall (even I disconnected internet cable before running the program), but I couldn't get it to work. The files are:

1. DRWUI.exe
2. DRW.exe
3. firebasefetch.exe
4. BUILDPE\firebasefetch.exe

after the proper host file, patch, and activator run successfully, when i run the application (with the internet still disconnected), the application shows as activated for only about 5 seconds. then it immediately reverts from activated back to trial mode

HOSTS FILE → PATCH → ACTIVATOR → INTERNET DISCONNECTED → LAUNCH APPLICATION → ACTIVATED FOR ~5 SECONDS → REVERTS TO TRIAL

I used "(64-Bit) EDRW Patcher v1.2" and «EDRW v13 Activator v2.1 — De!» to activate EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard 20.8 and other version above v17.0 on my win11
