If the PDF Converter trial license prompt still refuses to go away after selecting it for delete, then please delete the following files:

PdfConverter.resources.dll in Program Files\Visual Building\Program\Plugins\en-GB
Pdfconverter.dll in Program Files\Visual Building\Program\Plugins
PDF2DXF.exe in Program Files\Visual Building\Program\Plugins\arconos

The trial pdf converter was a 3rd party plugin product and was badly named because it was a pdf importer, not exporter, which one would expect.

If you need to import plans then it is just as easy to import them as a bmp, png or jpg and no need to import as a pdf.

See this topic for downloading a pdf export tool.

So this is not the PDF writer that you think it is. Best to remove it to stop it nagging you:

My email was concerning a Popup that I get when opening Visual Building Solar Designer telling me that PDF Converter PlugIn trial has expired, I was not aware that this was only a trial I assumed that as I purchased the top level of product from your company that this would be included.

As I would like to save and print using the PDF feature I would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction to purchase, if necessary, the licence for this PlugIn as I am unable to find it on your website or within the Forum.
