Here's what I did to register mine... substitute your named CDA directory in place of my SLPro. I think the key was to have the proper version for the license or it won't work (the license below was for my SLPro). If it doesn't work, try a different version, prob the latest. I may be able to find a link to a CDA version that may work with your license.
1/ Open the Windows registry (Win+R, regedit, ENTER) and go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Sony Creative Software\SpectraLayers Pro\3.0\License
2/ Delete the "License" folder.
3/ Make sure you have the latest version 3.0.29 or else it won't work.4/ Once you made sure you have 3.0.29, try to register again.
