I have installed the Community Edition 2025 and my first impressions is that, they heavily worked with UI changes and it looks nice. Rest is same as before maybe need some more time to test. However RE package for Release 2025 is missing but I see packages for all other Modules

    I confirm that the RE package for Release 2025 is missing. You can probably still use the previous version, but I assume Aras just forgot to add the new package. The lastest RE version was released for Release 33 and contained new useful features like spellcheck, drag&drop and other quality of live improvements. So this version would definitely be a win. 

    @ALL

    Could someone verify whether Aras has updated the user restrictions to align with the current descriptions on the homepage and in the Administrator Quick Start Guide?

    - According to the homepage Release 2025 supports up to 50 users
    - According to the Administrator Quick Start only "enabled" users are counted. 

    Back in Release 2024, system accounts and "disabled" users were counted too. 

    Questions:

    1. Is the user limit strictly 50, or is it slightly higher - around 53-55 - to accommodate system accounts such as Vault and Authentication Admin?
    2. If you exceed the user limit and disable some of the accounts, does Innovator work again? Are disabled accounts still counted as "active" users?

    Here is a small C# Method that can be used to add some "Test Users" fast and easy. 
    The Method will add 47 users. Please lower the "new user" number if you already have added your own custom accounts. 

    Notes: Only use this code in a dedicated test environment. Please don´t add very large numbers of users with this Method. This may have negative impact to your system performance.

        Thanks for testing! Does the error message disappear when you disable some of the users?
