You have an MC27 license that also works with recent builds of MC26.

Just a little further clarification.
The file properties say "MediaCenter.26.Registration" because mjr files are currently associated with MC26 in Windows. When you upgrade to MC27 the Windows File Association will (should) be changed so that any mjr file shows a property of "MediaCenter.27.Registration".

I am finding it a bit hard to swallow the upgrade modus operandi. Every few months so far since I purchased Ver 24 to v25 to v26 I have coughed up $28.to upgrade a master license, only to find cosmetic changes and some bug fixes that could have been pushed in smaller updates.
V27 has one major feature, VST3 support, which is by industry standards late. Also, VST3 files are not necessarily dll's but. Vst3 files. So talking about dll's and vst3 does not make sense.
I have since been exploring options like Roon, HQPlayer, Audirvana, and Roon and Audirvana appear to be doing a slightly better job of the end that matters-- audio quality. I am aware of all the talk of bitrate, depth, sampling, etc etc etc. I have exhausted all those considerations to judge that JRiver could use some tweaking here. Roon has also improved on the the second most important thing, library organization. Without these two anything else is frills. Album/audio curation has been quite quirky with JRiver especially with limited databases to lookup that provide accurate and comprehensive information that does not hours of manual verification. Of course, Roon is disgustingly priced, something I have even harder time swallowing.
But I have been diehard JRiver fan since way back when you were the only professional option when there was no other. And your options for streaming etc that no one yet offers. However, it seems that you should go back to the core functionalities of audio and curation and provide upgraded audio sampling and filter options. Along with a improved album scanning. Otherwise I can still run v24 without any appreciable difference worth upgrading every few months. I get the same audio quality and library functions from even earlier versions.

I upgraded from 25 in June. When I installed 27 I only get a month's trial. I thought my upgrade in June was for 27!

Problem solved, thank you
