Emotionally too!!

I can understand the devs position. Uncle E should have realized that the more popular items wouldn't allow the code!! Wonder who is taking the hit? Uncle E or the company the plugin belongs to? Because if the company is still getting the same amount of money from JRR, what does it matter to them what he sells it for? It's sold!! They make their money

I trust them also. Nope, not even. Friends have asked me about that and I always tell them I don't do it, and I advise not to.

Exactly. Unless you really need it Tim, if it were me, I'd hold off. I built my new machine about 4 - 5 months ago and there are STILL quite a few programs that I have yet to install. Band In A Box is the biggest. It takes a while!! Remember back in the day with XP you could do a full clean re-install in an afternoon, and be working on projects by night time!! Just make a backup image of you system drive. (That can't be a Terabye, is it?!!!) Then upgrade, see how it goes, and ya got a bkup if things don't work out. Some programs may give ya a hick up and you will have to re-authorize (looking at you IK!), others you may need to un-authorize then re-authorize. But I would think it should be fine just upgrading the OS. Not really changing any hardware. But if that won't work, I'd wait. I am hoping this new build takes me over the next 7 - 8 yrs like that last one did (thanks Jim!!)

Now I just tried again with IK's new Space Delay and it works.

Took me there too!!

Yeah I just tried with TH-U add-on pack and it wouldn't work. In fact, anything I tried it on didn't work.

Yes.

That's deep!!! : )

Nope, $99. And the "newpassword" voucher ain't working either.

^^^^This!! So why do I still come around here?

I typed in " How much is Win 10 Pro" and I got a few hits on a lower price. Yep. But from sites I never heard about, and I probably wouldn't buy anything from them. Digital Portal - $19.99 SoftwareMax- $59 G2A.com - $30.38 Best Buy (with Curbside Pickup!) - $199 Buymicrosoftwindows.com - $99.50 Kinguin.com - $32.35 Sweetwater - $139 (Best price I found from a known dealer) I have read PC World off and on for many years. Since I started computing back in '97. That's why I even considered this deal. Because if it's below $99, be sceptical. Start looking around the site before you buy.

Great news Bob. Thanks for the update. I knew it was all good. PC World has been around a long time. I have never thought of them as rip-offs. And believe me, I doubted the price at first. $39 for a real, full version of Win10....Pro? MS would never allow that!! But....

monolog makes great points. I shop online now without (almost) a second thought. This is also my concern. Because of the struggles, a hacker will figure out how to capitalize on this situation eventually. Hope not. But the threat is real.

Yes agreed. It's really a shame to keep those locked into AT. All those effects are stand alone plugins!!

There are some gems in the Rack section of AT. The Fulltone chorus is one of them. I can see why some would want to run a synth/vocals through it.

Sunset is nice!

Yeah I am glad they are ok and coming back up. He does seem like a good person just trying to run a business. And JRR is one of the shops I go to more. Yeah, I got some stuff last year and this year and it's still not showing up. Problem is, I can't remember what it is!! I would have to go back through my Paypal account to see what I bought from there. [edit] I did change my Password, just to stay on the safe side. And I am looking at getting the new IK Space Echo and maybe adding some TH-U sounds along with that to maximize my "savings!" LOL!!

These are all great ideas. I have two bkups. Both lic # are tucked away in their own folders in Onedrive and Google Drive. And both locations now have these Generic codes info!! Just in case! I am of the opinion that PC world would not be selling Win10 license so openly for such a long time. These are good numbers I really believe. And for little over $43 for Win10 PRO?!!! No brainer.

I do not store my bank info anywhere. And I use Paypal for all transactions. And I have to admit, my password for my bank account is really really good!!

And so.... I jumped and got another license too!! May get another in a few weeks if it's still going on.

Yes I would. That way you can transfer it to another machine. I know it's a PITA to do that, but I would.

At my age this is a regular thing!! : ) Was that TMI?

Yeah I think ya did that!! LOL : ) I know I am one!! : ) I haven't gone back through the whole thread, but I think others have confirmed that these are indeed a good valid MS license. I think it's call Authenticated, is the MS speak for this!

Hope everything goes well at the hospital Bob. If it's a OEM license, then the free upgrade to Win10 will be tied to that OEM machine still.
