When I try to download W2 Mate an error message comes up reading, “Authorization Required   This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required”. What should I do?

The optional feature code would have been sent to your email address that you provided at purchase.  You can enter the code by selecting from your toolbar>Tools>Enable Optional Feature code.  You will receive a message that states:

"CONGRATULATIONS, The following options are now enabled inside W2 Mate: "

This can mean two things. The first is if you are in a network environment and you did not have permission to install new software.  The second is when you installed  the program, you pointed the files to another folder then what the installation wizard had set, which is C>Program   Files>Real Business>  Solution. If you are not in a network environment then you will need to request a restart database email. Once you reset your database folder, you will be able to open the program on your hard drive.

Remember if you didn't buy the network option and try to install the software on a network it will not work.
