Tiles Expired Today [solved]

Does this mean I have to purchase it to continue using it?

March 1, 2012 11:28:49 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Today when I first booted up my computer, I got a message that Tiles expired.  I even paid $10 for additional features for a product that I thought was indefinite.  Does that mean i'll have to buy Tiles AND the features over again?  If so, Stardock's ripping me off.  Or do I just buy the program and all of my paid features will still be there?

Go here https://store.stardock.com/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=/myaccount/products and sign in. You'll see your registration next to Tiles. Copy to clipboard and then paste it in when you close and reopen Tiles.

It sounds like you were still using the beta.. Uninstall, reboot and install the latest and you should be ok.

I re-downloaded Tiles and the problem got solved.  It retained my skins and everything.  Thank you for your help.

Just a note but for some strange reason this does not work in windows 8 consumer preview. It keeps telling me invalid registration.

However the Tiles app seems to work in it's "basic mode" fine.

Windows 8 is still too new of a thing, so I wouldn't count on our software to work properly on it.  Once Windows 8 gets closer to actually being finished, then expect our software to be updated properly.
