Matlab keeps asking for activation on Windows8

Hi,
I recently ended a trial and then upgraded to a student license for my PC.
However despite being able to activate successfully matlab keeps launching the activation module on startup.
I am using Windows 8. I have tried both online and offline activation.
The activation creates a .lic file which looks good.
I have tried also uninstalling and re-installing. Deleting the preferences etc.
Can you please help.
Bruce

Someone reported a while ago that if they run the activation as Administrator then it worked permanently.

Does your username happen to contain a space or a non-ASCII character?
