Thanx to @Cliff S for bringing this to my attention.

Just kinda proud that our app gets top billing above Produkey and Magic Jelly Bean... (dancing banana goes here... LOL)

Recently on an another forum, I informed a user who was faced with buying a new licence for Windows as he had lost his Windows 8 (self installed) key, had upgraded (several months earlier), but for some reason windows 10 became inactivated. I told him about showkeyplus.

I then got a fairly abusive email from a nasty person suggesting that I obviously engage in solitary physical pleasure, saying everybody knew it was impossible to retrieve old key after windows.old has gone, and stop giving such crap advice.

Imagine my satisfaction when the OP replied saying Showkeyplus did the trick and was very grateful . PS the other guy never had the grace to aplogise of course.

One think I like about this forum is it is generally very friendly!

@cereberus, thanx for the feedback (unfortunate experience, what a pillock!...fortunately we do not allow those types here)

Norton still prevents showkeyplus from running .....
Have to disable Norton to get it to work ....

Had to believe, because I run Norton on 2 computers, and ShowkeyPlus has no problem running at all. :)

It happened to me - just restored it from Norton and marked itas an excluded file.

Yes you can also add it to Nortons safe list / excluded list ....but I've never had too.

I'm pretty thick skinned about such idiots.

I always remember the Dilbert classic truism:

Never argue with idiots.

They drag you down to their level.

Then they beat you with experience.
