Extend Your PDC Life

The product installs in the VPC images of WCF 4 and Dublin should be expiring around now if you've been using them. Since an updated preview isn't available, here's how to keep them going.

- Get a fresh copy of the VPC files where the applications haven't been used yet

Disable clock synchronization with the virtual PC host  

• Use the VPC as normal

Since disabling clock synchronization causes the virtual PC's time to only advance when it is running, a fresh installation should last as long as you need. You can repeat this process as many times as necessary though.
