This can happen if there is an error in the library and so the script 
aborts. Have you contacted the third-party vendor? That is what I'd do next.

No. You can't use an expired license with a newer version of Rev, but 
your licensed version will run forever.

I don't know about Valentina, but an OS update might interfere. It 
depends on what the third-party library is doing. If it is written in 
RevTalk only, then it is not likely to be a problem. If it is an 
external then it might have problems after an OS change.

You could add a logging handler to your standalone that writes the 
result of the commands that fail to a text file. That could give you 
some information.
