Hello, I’m a university student working on a project related to industrial automation, and Factory I/O has been an essential tool for my learning. However, my trial period has expired, and I still need to use it to complete my project, which is expected to finish by June 2025. Would it be possible to extend my trial license until then for educational purposes? I’d really appreciate any support or guidance on this! Thanks for help. ---

Hello, I am a 4th year student of electrical and electronics engineering, I made an automation project through the factory IO program for my graduation project, but I completely forgot that the version I used would expire and the trial version expired before I could present my project to my teacher. Do I have the opportunity to take advantage of the trial version for only 10 days or 1 week in this regard, or I will not be able to pass my course. ---
