WB refusing to open due to PC battery failure

Not sure if this is a known problem or a normal action
But I just thought I'd let you know.
I came back from a long holiday only to find that WB kept crashing when I tried to load it.
I am still on XP (will move to Windows 10 in a couple of months) and was using WB v14.
I then noticed date and time on computer was wrong, so I changed the motherboard battery and WB loaded fine.
I had not seen this problem with any other programme that I was using.

Hello kibble,

I think that's part of the copy protection. The behavior should be normal, even if I would assume it rather in a demo version of WB limited in time. But maybe the code exists still in the purchased version of WB.
