Hi, I bought FSUIPC7 FOR MSFS on Simmarket, but I can't get past the WideFS registration. I enter the email and the code I received after purchase, but the program says the data is invalid. What is this nonsense? Do I need a degree to register your software?

Does your FSUIPC7 key still validate? If so, you are entering it incorrectly or you are using a different name and/or address for your WideFS key. If that is the case, check the appropriate box and enter those details. Otherwise, let me know your WideFS7 order number and I will check your key here.

Dear John, I figured it out. I didn’t know that the program consists of two parts. I bought WideFS and a second key, and everything is working now. Thank you.

Yes, WideFS is a separate program/license, and is composed of two parts - WideServer and WideClient. The registration is for WideServer, which is built into FSUIPC since FSUIPC4 - before that it was a separate executable. This is why you need to register it with the FSUIPC installer. 

Note that you can also now run FSUIPC7 on a client machine, which is another solution for running clients/controllers in a client PC, and no additional license for WideFS is needed, However, this is not the same as running WideClient on the client PC, so may not be suitable for all use cases. See the appendix in the Advanced User guide if interested in running FSUIPC7 in a client PC. Note that you cannot run both WideClient and FSUIPC on the same machine, although both can  be installed if you want to try and switch between the two.
