Necto Invalid Hex file

[Coach]

I decided to try this new Necto Compiler to see if it is better the MikroCPro for ARM. I can't get it to even program the board! It keeps giving me an error.

C:/Users/User/Documents/Mikroe/Projects/build-Ports-mikrocarm-board_fusion_for_arm_v8-stm32f407zg-168-mhz/Ports/Ports.hex

Here's another snippet from the output just in case this helps:

Now to wait 24 or more hours for an admin to hold my hand and approve my post for a response. This can be mildly annoying and surely slows down the process to learn anything.

Hi,

error (,0): License not found.

Please activate the compiler with a trial license.

Kind regards,

[Coach]

That helped.
