Activation fails: "The serial number does not exist"

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm trying to re-install Nitro Pro on my second laptop after a reset. But I get an error message saying that the serial number does not exist. I am using the correct number and the help page says I do have one activation remaining. Can anyone help me with this, please?

Thanks.

In my case, I am unable to begin a "new topic" and I am unable to activate my program.  Can you please help me?  I have a Serial Number and have gone through the steps from the portal.  I am still unable to activate my program.  It was working just fine until I had a virus and had to delete my program and re install it.  Please help.

Hello @David Gee,

Thank you for the private message.

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!
