Hello,

Correct procedure is to run UPGRADE. De-install and re-install procedure is simply unnecessary
as it does not improve anything but just adds more work and you need to reapply the key.

  Hi Ed,

  I guess the only option you have left is to try uninstall and
  reinstall the software and see if that solves your problem.

  I don't like to upgrade software; I prefer to uninstall first then
  install a newer version.
