NI said it will provide a key, so how does that work?

Yeah, you can infer from my last reply that the simple necessity for correspondence is already quite obviously understood. What I actually need to know is the current procedure for offline activation.

Yes, that's what I was able to gather from making inquiries on a different forum where I was informed of a curial step, which is to apply all the updates first because the updates can generate different codes. Good thing I asked because I might have missed that one and sent the wrong codes.

Warning though, as applying those updates will also put the software into demo mode without any activation key! So it's a catch 22 situation.

Yeah! The very old activation files useful in Service Center.

MIDI Bear, please set your thread to Answered by Uwe303, okay?

LOL... I think it is time to make a massive request again and demand the forum option "unfollow post" here and now!

Responses don't necessarily imply that the question has been answered.

@MIDI Bear And here comes a valid reason for your request. Have a look at this thread and the posts of @Hayo_NI on page 2 about them cutting support for OSes. This would be a valid motivation to ask for registration keys and installation files for bought products: NA won’t support your installations and registrations unless you don’t have the OS they say you must have, which are not the same as when you bought your products and you accepted their EULA (which contains also obligations from THEIR side)

Yeah, when I tried to use the control center offline activation procedure the link just redirected me to a page where Native Instruments stated their intention to no longer honor their obligations under the agreement.....which they can not do.
