If you are using Windows Vista and want to revoke the license from a Standard level Limited User Account,
you should temporarily disable the User Access Control (UAC), otherwise the revocation tool will request
elevation to administrator and may not detect the correct license to revoke.
You will need to re-activate BioShock logged in as the Administration user before revoking the license from
the Standard user account.
6.3 Revocation process failed! Internal Error: a connection error occurred.
If you are not connected to the internet when you run the BioShock Revoke Tool, or your proxy settings are
not setup within Internet Explorer, you may see the following error message.
not setup within Internet Explorer, you may see the following error message.
In order for the revoke tool to contact the activation server, you need to be connected to the internet, please
make sure that you are connected and try again.
If you are using an Internet Proxy and Internet Explorer is not your default browser, please transfer the proxy
settings from your default browser to Internet Explorer. Details on how to accomplish this can be found on
http://www.2kgames.com/bioshock/support
under Game Installation Issues.
Note: the BioShockRevokeTool uses two standard internet protocol ports to access the activation server,
these are port 80 (HTML) and port 443 (SSL).
7. Exceptional Cases - Requests for Additional Activations
If you find that you have exceeded all your activations and the revoke tool does not help, please visit
http://www.2kgames.com/bioshock/support/revoketool
for details of who to contact with requests to increase
your activation limit.
Each request will be reviewed on an individual basis, customers may also be asked to provide proof of
purchase before increasing activation limits. 2K Games reserve the right to refuse increasing activation
limits if it is found that the activation key has been abused, for example has had excessive activation
attempts from different IP addresses, indicating that it is widely shared.

8. Online Activation Limits Explained
The PC DVD version of BioShock requires online activation to confirm that a legitimate version of the game
is being installed. Activation is currently limited to a five by five scheme.
The five by five scheme limits the number of installations to five different activations, on different hardware
configurations and five activations on the same hardware configuration, where the license information has
been reset, either because the hard disc drive has been formatted/replaced, the license information has
become corrupt and cannot be read, or a major hardware change has been made.
As long as the license information is intact between installations on the same machine configuration,
BioShock will not ask to be re-activated between installations and therefore your activation limit will not be
affected.
