Question

So I've been doing my research, reading reviews, watching youtube videos and I'm super excited to start trying out BackyardEOS and do my first widefield sessions in the next few days. Right now I'm just shooting with a Canon 5d Mark II and some decent L series lenses.
Bottom line, the real reason for this post... I'm running a Windows 10 virtual machine under VMWare on a MacBook Pro and everything seems to be great. I build the VM, installed BackyardEOS, typed in my trial key and I'm learning and experimenting with the features... but there is one major problem. I attempted to open BackyardEOS with the laptop in "airplane mode" basically to simulate the total lack of connectivity I'll have in the "almost dark" sites I plan to get to as soon as these clouds clear... but the software won't open and warns me that trial keys require internet access. I'm *super* glad I tested this out before I left as I know there isn't even cell signal out there to tether my iPhone.
Is there any way to provision a trial key that isn't going to require internet access to open the software? Does the full version require internet access, or only the trial versions?
Thanks in advance!
