Erase authorization?

Community Beginner ,
Mar 11, 2016 Mar 11, 2016

Trying to erase authorization but receiving error "unable to erase. Try again some time." Tried deleting program and reinstall but no luck. Also, looked for activation.dat file path but also can't find it to delete it. Any others in this boat.
