FIX Updated online activation

I hate the Alcohol update feature: you have to uninstall your current version-reboot. Install new version-reboot. Then run it and re-enter your serial # then online activate it. I was the better part of 10 minutes doing the upgrade. Thankfully, they don't upgrade that often, maybe 2x a year.

I wish it was more like Nero's upgrade-over top of the current version.

Yes. You must use the online activation.

I'm sure it's a matter of time before someone to make a 'work-around' though.


But I bought my licence nearly a year ago...so the upgrade went smoothly.
