Title: Unable to activate in Windows 8
Post by: TheKillerPiglet on January 16, 2013, 04:32:54 pm
Hi,

I purchased a license a couple of days ago and have been able to activate my laptops and desktop, but I have a laptop that I use as a music server running Windows 8 and I cannot seem to activate it on that machine.

When I first clicked on the license file, it opened with a text editor. I then associated the file extension with JRiver, and when I double click it it opens MC but the incense does not update.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for the purchase.

Please install the latest Media Center, downloaded directly from JRiver.

Then, run the MJR file you get when you license.
