Unable to activate = Unable to work

[Tanya Metcalf 0]

I have followed all suggested steps to try to activate Nitro Pro 12 on my laptop to work from home. Read other forums, deactivated, etc. 

However, I now have 0/2 activations and am unable to activate the program on my laptop OR work computer. 

My "free trial" on laptop ends tomorrow and although I'm not supposed to be working in office, I couldn't use it there anymore even if I wanted to. 

Any resolution asap would be greatly appreciated as I cannot work until this is resolved.

Hello @Tanya Metcalf,

Thank you for the private messages.

Please be informed that 'The serial number entered does not exist' means the serial number you are trying to activate is for a different version of Nitro Pro. Looks like we need to uninstall the current version of Nitro Pro on your computer and install Nitro Pro 12. We then activate it using your serial number. Kindly follow these steps:
 
1. Uninstall Nitro Pro from your computer by going to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features then reboot the machine.

2. Please clear all your downloads folder or delete all downloaded Nitro installers. This step is important because we noticed that if you are saving all the installers and you download them in the same folder (like the downloads folder), the EXE can pick up any MSI installer in that folder and you may pick-up one of the older builds instead of the newly downloaded package.

3. Download your Nitro Pro 12 using these offline link/s:

x32 http://install.nitropdf.com/professional_12163574/en/retail/nitro_pro12_ba_x86.msi
x64 http://install.nitropdf.com/professional_12163574/en/retail/nitro_pro12_ba_x64.msi 

If you are unsure if your machine is using 32 or 64-bit, please refer to this link: https://kb.gonitro.com/knowledgebase/#/search/64/000003790 

4. After installation, you can activate by opening Nitro Pro, clicking on the Help tab > About Nitro Pro > Activation and entering your serial number.

Thank you for choosing Nitro and I hope this helps!
