This is not a good sign. I am amongst those that has been using this software so long I thought it about time I paid for it. The order link has been broken for the last few days. Ultimately I hope Mike is ok. According to a Redditor who claims to have spoken to him personally, Mike is fine, and has...

Where is the beta key that Mike says is available?

No updated beta key is currently available. A new one should be posted soon.

You can always find the most recent key here:

Thank you for the quick response. Do you think I should reach out to PayPro Global or wait on Mike - Thanks

Reaching out to PayPro is not necessary; they should provide a refund within a few days.

How much is it to register a life time membership of sorts with MakeMKV? And how do I get to that section to do this? I'd rather pay than constantly adding registration codes every 2 to 3 month Regards to buying a life time key, I've just been on my MAKEMKV to purchase the life time key and when yo...

There's no one that can tell us something about what's happening (not speculate) with beta keys and the purchase of the lifetime key??? If anybody knows anything for certain, they're not talking. I speculate that speculation is all we have at the moment. We are all "lost", the moderators ...

Nobody's really sure what's going on with Mike, the MakeMKV developer. He has been out of contact for at least a week or so. I hope he's okay. No purchase link is currently available, as PayPro Global is out of pregenerated keys. Right now, we're all just waiting to see what happens next.

As far as the mods have indicated, it means that people who placed orders that aren’t fulfilled request refunds from PayPro Global. And we all try to find a more permanent workaround for the beta key PayPro Global is already issuing refunds to people who didn't get keys, whether they've requested a...

Is Mike on vacation? The beta key hasn't been updated, so I thought I would buy a license. But looks like that's not working either.

As far as I know, nobody is really certain what's going on with Mike. I'm hoping it's nothing serious.

MakeMKV's developer is currently out of contact, and to my knowledge, nobody is quite sure what's up. (I hope he's okay!) Right now, we're all waiting to see what happens next.

Generally, you have two options: Update the beta key every time the old one expires. You can get the current beta key here . Beta keys are typically good for a month or two. Buy MakeMKV. This gets you a key that never expires. However, neither of these options is currently available. MakeMKV's devel...

When the beta key expires, that FAQ answers the questions folks typically have. The time stamp on all my posts of that FAQ are from before the purchase system was known to be broken. In my view, that makes those posts very relevant at the time. It's a very useful FAQ, and I appreciate you posting i...

I paid $60 on 7/31 and received my key almost immediately. Sounds like I got lucky. Very happy with the software. Even happier to support a quality product. That is an interesting data point. Thank you for sharing it. I suspect an expiring beta key always prompts a lot of purchases; it's good to kn...

Delays of up to a week or more aren't all that uncommon, but this is the first I've seen multiple posts saying people aren't even getting their keys that they paid for PayPro Global appears to be offering refunds to everybody who purchased MakeMKV but did not get a key — even if they did not reques...

Are we sure Mike's still alive? Uncertain. Reports differ. At least two posters have reported PayPro Global said they were unable to contact Mike: No response from MakeMKV and PayPro just forwarded my email to them to makemkv. Reached back out this morning asking if they have heard anything at all ...
