volume key unknown w/ flashed? WH16NS40, what am I doing wrong?

[makemg123]

Hi,

Bought a WH16NS40 with nextstar DX enclosure.
Flashed using everything you need firmware pack to 1.02 using SDF Flasher version 1.3.6

Now able to read UHD when previously wasn't to show disc name in the windows explorer.
Info in MakeMKV seems to look good?

Ensure MakeMKV has internet access enavled in preferences. Also ensure that nothing on your computer is blocking MakeMKV from downloading the UHD hashed keys.

Not sure what I did in march but I found a way to make it work.
Came back to this after a few months and had the same problem unable to download and failed to open a new disc.

Ended up downloading another manual keydb from findVUK and putting it in.
But also remembered to run as admin.

First time it worked, said it was downloading keydb, very quickly moved past that and then opened disc.

I tried to downgrade the manual keydb and then run as admin, and it seems to have done the trick.

So i guess I forgot to run this as admin as the main issue. Thanks for reminder to make sure access internet is also turned on.
