When I run Editor X and click on “Community License”, a “System Error” is displayed.

Hi @laihesheng,

Since you’ve already updated to v 9.30. Have you tried not using Editor X and just starting the Editor.exe app instead?

It can be used with the same community license since v 9.29.

Thanks. The Editor can be used normally with a Community License.
