Hi,  
I have the free Studio plan and today I got an Expired License message in the log when I tried to execute a test suite. How do I fix it?

Thanks,  
Joanna

If you are happy with the free version of Katalon Studio, which has less features than the Enterprise one, then you can continue using the free version. You do not have to “fix it” at all.

Hi there,  
The problem was that I was not able to use the program because of the Expired License error message. It turns out my browser driver was out of date. I updated the driver and the program is working properly again.  
Thanks,  
Joanna
