Did you encounter any issues?

We have an activation guarantee

If you have problems, e.g. if the licence does not work, we will replace it immediately and free of charge! Our licences must be activated within a certain time frame.

If you have followed all the instructions and downloaded, extracted (if necessary) and installed the file, but the licence does not activate the software, it is possible that the licence has expired.

In this case, we ask you to fill out the form in our help centre and send a picture with the error message. You will then receive a new licence for immediate activation.

The licence gives you the right to download and use the updates.
