Retail Lifetime Licenses Not Working?


Recommended Posts

I have a good number of the older lifetime retail licenses - all purchased from newegg (discontinued product link: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832562001). They're all a physical card with both an ID and Key - to date, none of them seem to work when trying to activate in a fresh install of 3.0. If i download and install a pre-3.0 version of Malwarebytes, then activate, then install 3.0 over top, it works, and 3.0 respects the lifetime subscription... but using the keys from the retail cards direct into 3 never seems to work - the button to activate never even lights up in the UI. Is this a known issue with older keys? I do have a ticket into support, as several posts seem to indicate that's the only way to resolve the issue - I'm just more curious if this is something others have seen? It really feels like 3.0 doesn't even like the format of the ID/Key, as the activate button never even lights up.
