The Reflect X Knowledge Base is now live:


We now know the trade in offers that will be available to those with older V8, v7, and v6 one-time licences, and for recently purchased perpetual v8 licences.

Macrium said:
I purchased a one-time license
If you purchased on or after July 1st, 2024, you have three options;
  • Continue using Reflect 8 for as long as you want. You will continue to have access to 12 months technical support from the date you bought the licenses.
  • Trade in (your existing license will be deactivated after your new license is activated) your one-time license (which has one year of support from the date of purchase) and receive a 3-year Annual Plan at no extra cost. Macrium may make loyalty offers available at the end of your 3-year term. However, even without a license, Reflect always allows you to restore/recover your data (you won’t be able to make new backups). We’ve also made your backup files open-source - it’s your data and you own it.
  • NEW: Trade in (your existing license will be deactivated after your new license is activated) your one-time license (which has one year support from the date of purchase) and receive 50% off the normal annual plan price for life (must turn on auto-renew and not allow the license to expire/lapse).
Home users have 6 months from the launch of Reflect X to decide which option suits them best. Step-by-step instructions to obtain either option from the grace period will be published this week.

For Reflect Home users who purchased V8 before July 1, 2024:
You are eligible for two options. The first option is 50% off Annual plans for life. Option 2 is our “Better than Black Friday 2024 Offer:” 3 years for the price of 2:

If you choose 50% off annual plans for life, you will have to trade in your current Reflect Home V8 license.

If you choose 3 years for the price of 2, you can keep your Reflect Home V8 license. This amount must be paid up front and at the end of the plan, customers may renew based on offers available at the time (or return to your one-time license.)

For Home V6 & V7: We are offering 3 years for the price of two. This amount must be paid up front and at the end of the plan, customers may renew based on offers available at the time (or return to your one-time license.)This offer ends March 31st 2025.

If you have a Macrium Account, then the trade in offers are available there. If you don't, then you can register for a Macrium Account with the email address you used for your original purchase.

Upgrading from v8, v7 or v6

Macrium said:

Viewing your Upgrade Options​

Based on the timing of your existing license purchase and the current status of your Support and Maintenance plan, there are various personalized upgrade options available. There are multiple upgrade paths that can be accessed through the Macrium Reflect application or the Macrium Account.

Are there others having issue with the latest Macrium Reflect, that it shows on launch: "Your license is not registered to this hardware"? There hasn't been any change to components. Only Windows Cumulative/Preview Cumulative 24H2 upgrades.

That has nothing to do with the latest update, it has been seen by some before. This was back in November last year....

I noticed today that my daily Macrium incremental didn't run
Opened up Macrium to be greeted by the Licence de-activated 'not linked to this computer' screen
Clicking on Move licence re-activated it.

It's not that uncommon, others have seen it too - and in v8, not just Reflect X. Seems that Reflect licensing checks for MAC addresses, in part. If they change it mistakenly thinks it's a different machine. This thread throws some light on this issue....

Ok, its that issue with MAC address then, because I did changes to Hyper-V Switch to configure more interfaces for Hyper-V and WSL, and also changed default external interface.

Yes, that would be it. The only time I've seen it myself was after reconfiguring a Hyper-V switch on my machine.

I did "Help/Update license key..." and rebooted machine, it didn't show key issue any more.

I'm having the same issue but I think it's because I'm using bleachbit. I'll have to check to see if a setting is deleted, not sure.

Doing that Update license key... didnt work after all. Using it works for a short period of time, like a day. And its sunday so support isn't at work I guess. Left a ticket to Macrium. But I did read this MAC override as posted to the thread. Downloaded the binary and I did that registry key add. It might even work... let's see. MAC address for Ethernet adapter and vEthernet adapter (External) have identical MAC addresses, whats different is what GUID they have. So I think it uses GUID to sort out who is who.

Today, about a day later, I did cold boot and no more that "Update license key..." dialog when starting Macrium Reflect X. I did download that binary what was posted on Macrium Forum thread and added one register key with MAC address of Ethernet External and vEthernet External.
