Errors when exporting to vst3

[pcs800]

In one project, I created RSA key pair and a dummy license file.
When i tried to export to vst3, I got this.

@pcs800 I deleted the license file and xml file, and that fixed it. I will have to figure out licensing at some point.

This looks a bit like you are trying to use the Activate system without any of the code...

If you are not set up and paying for it - this wont work - you will need to set up your own RSA encrypt/decrypt approach, or obtain a 3rd party one - (Warning I sell a 3rd party RSA system so careful what I say).

@Lindon yeah just experimenting. You have to try things to figure out what they do :-)
