[SOLVED] After windows 10 upgrade of 7 x64 VMProtect 2.13.5 is in demo mode

I upgraded my windows 7 x64 partition on the dev machine that had a licensed VMProtect 2.13.5 on it, to windows 10 and now VMProtect 2.13.5 says it's in demo mode.

I reinstalled it and even re-copied the .key file into the folder but that didn't fix it.

Help?

It seems you have installed the demo version (it shows "[demo]" at the caption of the main window) instead of the full one.

Huh, I thought I installed the real deal over on that x64 partition but perhaps not.
I'll uninstall the reinstall the purchased one.

There was a .key file in the VMProtect folder already though when I tried to drop my purchased .key file there.

So...... yeah.

Thanks

Ta-Da!

I uninstalled the VMProtect on that windows 10 x64 partition and renamed the left behind VMProtect Ultimate folder to .old, checked the registry - found no VMProtect in HKLM or HKCU, so I reinstalled from the password protected zip I got with my order, dropped my .key file in there and voila! - Registered!

Thanks for everything and I love your program!
