Great, but how about letting me have my paid, licensed Rust rover open on two PCs simultaneously?
I have my work PC which I leave on pretty much 24/7 and if I forget to close RustRover, and try to launch it on my desktop (for personal project, or to just work from another room) I get an error that I already have a licensed copy running and it closes RustRover. Sometimes I wake my Laptop from sleep and it does this because I still had an old window open. Really unnecessary...
> This works fine on my personal license with different usernames.
I just checked on my two machines different OS, different OS usernames.
Both copies of Rust Rover are signed in with the same account and have the same license.
I just tried launching RR on both machines and... I didn't have the issue that I've been struggling with for what seems like forever. This WAS definitely 100% an issue before though, I was trying everything to find an different editor to switch to.

So its possible they made a change since I stopped trying to do this and got in the habit of closing RR out on each machine... and didn't realize they actually did fix it.
I just bought the annual license for all IDEs did not know this was a restriction that’s a bummer. Surely they can do some pattern analysis to determine which systems belong to a single license.
For personal licenses it's a non-issue. For commercial, use the same username on both computers. If you have floating licenses, you need multiple licenses.
