• [X ] Searched main docs for your problem PySimpleGUI Documenation
• Looked for Demo Programs that are similar to your goal. It is recommend you use the Demo Browser! Demo Programs
• None of your GUI code was generated by an AI algorithm like GPT
• If not tkinter - looked for Demo Programs for specific port
• For non tkinter - Looked at readme for your specific port if not PySimpleGUI (Qt, WX, Remi)
• Run your program outside of your debugger (from a command line)
• Searched through Issues (open and closed) to see if already reported Issues.PySimpleGUI.com
• Have upgraded to the latest release of PySimpleGUI on PyPI (lastest official version)
• Tried running the Development Build. Your problem may have already been fixed but not released. Check Home Window for release notes and upgrading capability
• For licensing questions please email license@PySimpleGUI.com

Detailed Description

Since the New license validation I cannot compile to .exe (for my hobbiest calculator tool) without getting License key requests of the end user, which eventually terminate in unhandled exceptions when they don't interact with other scripts.

What is the solution for this? I get you guys want to monetize against businesses, but having donated a reasonable amount, and being well within the hobbiest license, the I'm pretty disappointed that I now have to navigate end user errors due to your implementation, when really they shouldn't be asked at all what my license is.

Code To Duplicate

A short program that isolates and demonstrates the problem (Do not paste your massive program, but instead 10-20 lines that clearly show the problem)

If you care to share something about your project, it would be awesome to hear what you're building.

The program that's been built is not asking for your key, it's asking for your user's key.
