activation page does not exist

[Johann Kok]

Hi, 
I had to format my harddisk and need install my NitroPDF v8 again.  I click on Help -> About -> Activation, 
but when I click on the URL to active it (www.nitropdf.com/activation) it just takes me to a page that does 
not exist.  How can I activate my Nitro?
I know V8 is outdated, but I did purchase it and wish to continue using it for the time being.

Hello @Johann Kok,

Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums!

Please note that we no longer support Nitro Pro 8 and its activation servers have been shut down which is why you are having issues activating.

We recommend upgrading to our latest version, Nitro PDF Pro 13, which comes with significant stability and security improvements, as well as many feature enhancements, in particular in conversion and OCR functions. To upgrade to Nitro PDF Pro 13 at a discounted rate, please visit our Upgrade page https://www.gonitro.com/pro/upgrade 

Alternatively, you can upgrade to the latest build of Nitro Pro 12. Per our Sunset Policy, https://www.gonitro.com/nps/product-details/sunset-policy , we have stopped making feature enhancements to version 12 once we released version 13.  

You can find the Nitro Pro 12.16.9.574 installer on this page and activate it with your current Nitro Pro 8 serial number 234608-xxxxxx-777675:
https://www.gonitro.com/nps/product-details/downloads 

If you are getting the 'Nitro Pro Wizard has failed' message using our .exe package, it is because it requires a stable Internet connection to download installation files so please use offline English MSI packages instead:

x32 http://install.nitropdf.com/professional_12169574/en/retail/nitro_pro12_ba_x86.msi 
x64 http://install.nitropdf.com/professional_12169574/en/retail/nitro_pro12_ba_x64.msi

To know if you have 32-bit or 64-bit, please refer to this article:

Thank you for choosing Nitro and I hope this helps.

Thank you Allian.  I came right with Nitro 12.

Regards

Johann
