So another tip hopefully so people don't waste the 30 precious minutes I just have - the instructions above are great - however:

If you copy the registration key on a mac by double clicking it, on pasting it has a space at the end - and so doesn't allow you to click register

You just have to delete the space at end - and then it works!

If you don't delete the space at the end, you may waste your time in an endless loop of re-downloading the software 'just one more time' to see if it works - even though you know thats a nonsense... obviously I have not just done that...

The fix works perfectly. Thanks so much for all your hard work over the years - a true labor of love you've given to the community here, and it is *very* much appreciated.

The "Select all" in the Code block header always picks the correct key - with Windows and likely all other OSs.
