When I try to run Harpoon 3 ANW scenario editor I get the error . Matrix cannot validate serial number please contact Matrix for support.
I have Ultimate edition installed. Other stuff runs including ANW main game, just the scenario editor won't run.

I experienced the same thing with several programs in HUE.

If your are using Win7, try running the Editor with 'Run as Administrator' - right click on EXE.

It is most likely trying to access/write something that is doesn't have permissions for.
