Reactivation of MC doesn't work after updating my computer's OS

Reply Contact

Hello there, I updated my OS from windows 7 to windows 10, without knowing it could be an issue for my MC activation (now I know). However, the problem is that my license is showing as active in the Avid Application Manager, but not Avid Media Composer itself. So, is that possible by you to reset my activation somehow?

I'd try deactivating and reactivating from within App Manager and see if that sorts out MC.

First of all thank you for your immediate response. So, I tried to deactivate and activate again, but it didn't work. Below is the message that Application Manager showed me.
