Reaper back to evaluation mode

Coachz · 07-09-2019, 04:13 AM

I have a full Reaper install and also a portable install. My full Reaper install is not loading as an evaluation install after performing a full scan of plugins to boot. I'm lost on what has happened. I didn't change anything other than testing the translow js fx. I tried installing the latest "reaper5979+dev0708a_x64-install" and it installs but still is in what looks like portable mode / evaluation mode not honoring my license, my theme or anything else.

I deleted my portable install and imported my backed up prefs and license and it all seems normal again. WTF happened ? Thank god I backup prefs often.

makes no sense... if your lic was working before it should still work, meaning not expired... are you sure the lic is in the correct locations?

I reinstalled the license and it worked because its a 5/6 version license.

I'm just curious why the whole app went bork. Can a js plugin do this?

No no... just kidding

anyway not that I know of.... I have no idea what would have done that but good to hear it's all happy again
