New Beta Key is invalid

Post by arrebato1 »

Haven't been on for a while and i am getting the latest key is invalid even though the site says the key is valid until end Jan 26. I know Mike sometimes takes a few days to update it but i don't remember it going on for 12 days before. Any ideas?

MakeMKV is free while in beta

Sure you're trying to use the current beta key? And that there's not an extra space or a character missing?

Well i think so but i must be doing something wrong. Copied the beta key from the site hit help then register and then pasted. Invalid. Tried on another laptop too same problem.

I think sometimes a copy & paste can add a space at the end. It assumes you're going to type the next word in a sentence, which is often helpful except in this case.

Yes you are exactly right i could see the space at the end eventually. Lesson learnt!
Thanks for your input.
