Cyberdemon87 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Hello everyone! I'm kinda confused with what's going on with the updates and expired licenses. I was able to update to the latest version (11.8) manually just fine, I cannot update through Launchbox directly when it checks for new versions and it says my license is expired, but by downloading it manually everything is installing and working. So, am I missing something here? I was thinking, what's the point of having an active license if there's this simple workaround. Both Launchbox and BigBox seem to be running fine for the time being. Please let me know. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB checks the license on boot so it would not matter if you download in the UI or from the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably lost premium features, does Bigbox load, im going to say it doesnt any longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's better advice. The name would still show. Just premium features would no longer work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdemon87 Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Yeah, that's what I said in the first post, BigBox loads with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 @Cyberdemon87 LaunchBox compares your license expiration date to the release date of the version that was released. When did your license expire and what version are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdemon87 Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 My license expired exactly a year ago. I'm running the latest version, 11.8 which I downloaded yesterday from the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running the latest version, 11.8 which I downloaded yesterday from the site. I'll have to look at the details on the license to figure out what's going on exactly. I can't find your license in our database, probably because you're using a different email. Can you PM me what email you're using? And the name on the license?
