Perpetual license blocking
When Ultra Engine rebranded as Leadwerks, they required all users to update to a newer version of the client.[citation needed] The new client prompted users to log in with their email address instead of their username, which blocked users with a perpetual license from accessing their installation until they re-verified that their perpetual license was active.[citation needed]
