Before I updated to Poser 11.2 on the 19th of September I went into program files and changed the name of the Smith Micro Poser 11 folder from 11 to 11.1.1.35540. Then modified the existing desktop shortcut to point to the newly changed location also changed its name. And it worked. Installed Poser 11.2 and it put itself into my Smith Micro folder and called the folder Poser 11 and it appears to have used the prior install information. I run 11.2 then exit it and then run 11.1 and it has been running ever since. The only issue is that they share the same preferences not a big deal. I believe this works because Poser 11.1 & 11.2 are sharing the same serial number, so both look at the activation file and it looks good to both. 11.2 updates the file and 11.1 reads its and since it is freshly updated by 11.2 does not need to make the call home function. Also my machine is on the internet.

How long this will work no idea. But it has been over a month now so I would think it should have done a check by now. On the other hand I have all my Smith Micro licenses loaded at PGPortal, since I have both Poser and MoHo. I just checked PGPortal and the Poser serial numbers are no longer valid, whereas the MoHo ones are,
