I checked,but doesn't.

I’m not sure why it isn’t working on your computer. How did you install and run Navicat?

Sorry,I think I found the reason.Since the lite version has not been deleted and is in the same directory, you can reset it by deleting and reinstalling it.

is there any way to "hide" the trial reminder?

@yoshiosdw, did you close Navicat before running this script? Your log shows Navicat was still open when you executed it.
