What Am I Missing?Answered

I have been playing with TurboActivate to try to get my app protected via an installer. I know I must be missing something! My .exe installs correctly, but not getting any of the LimeLM or TA protection to show. Using Inno Setup as I was having issues with NSIS. (BTW. I Got NSIS to pull up the TA protection, but never got a code to properly validate.) So if some kind soul is willing to look at my files and point out what I did wrong, it would be very appreciated. I am including the .iss and .nsi in case one solution is easier than the other. BTW - yes I double checked that I put the GUID code in the files.

.nsi
