At MegaCorp we care about your experiences. After your Certified Corporate Extortion is complete a follow up survey will be sent to refine the experience for future users. As a reminder all software is licensed and may be revoked at any time at our discretion. For a limited time only we are offering a Super Liquidation Discount on upgrades before the next Planned Obsolete Upgrade {P.O.U.! It Packs a Punch!™️ 🥊}

Semi joking aside you can call the license activation hotline after checking in the Control Panel under System to see if your key is listed there. There are also a few guides to figuring out what made it think it’s unlicensed. Sometimes there are clock errors that do it, so check if a reboot clears it up and synchronize your time under Date & Time under the control panel.

NirSoft offers a free key extraction tool to do it quickly and graphically just by running the exe file from the zip or installing it fully and double clicking the program icon.
