Purchase and Licensing Help
JimH:
Edge is just the browser engine. It's not the full browser. We use it in some cases because it has permission to read "protected" files.
Nothing to do with the failure to migrate data.
Install MC29 again.
Backup in MC28 and restore that backup in MC29.
If you still have trouble, try changing the browser engine under Tools > Options > View.
What antivirus are you using? We recommend only using Windows Defender. There is a thread here that describes configuration.

Thanks Jim, and thank you for your quick response and apologies for my slow response.
I followed your instructions this evening. Before reinstalling, I also uninstalled McAfee Antivirus Pro, which I was meaning to do for some time. (McAfee = king of pop-ups and unwanted solicitations straight to your OS and eyeballs. Don't recommend.)
Upon reinstalling MC29, no Edge errors of any sort, and restored my backup (to include Settings) and it seems to have worked well.
Thank you!

Media Center uses WebView2, which is a framework to use embedded browsers in apps like Media Center on Windows, which itself is based on the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge. By default Media Center uses Microsoft Edge (via WebView2) as the web browser which is required and used for Cloudplay, Netflix, etc. plus for things that use DRM (e.g. Netflix) WebView2/Edge is the only embedded browser engine that supports it. Media Center also have an option to switch to Chromium (via CEF) but Microsoft Edge via WebView2 would be the recommended option as it's always kept up-to-date automatically by Windows Update (that, and DRM content won't work with Chromium as far as I know). Do note that Media Center won't use any other browsers installed on the system, just those embedded browsers.
If there's issues getting Media Center to download and install WebView2 you can manually do it from the link above and it'll work fine after that.

I have been upgrading since V 22. I cannot get MC29 to work.
It keeps telling me Trial Period has ended after I open the mjr file s that are sent to me on after using Restore License function. All of these are MediaCentre28 restore files by the look not MC29 which I have paid for and cannot use. I have read the licensing link many times. What is going on - can you please resend me the MC29 code so I can type it in. I can't find a email from March with the alpha code that I can type in.?
Thanks
David Sydney:
Just did it again and it keeps sending me MC28 restore keys not MC29 - now down to 6 restores left just trying to get MC29 working?
