User says Backupper upgrade to new version does not keep license

Very frustrating experience, I urgently need to create a backup of my windows drive to try a reinstall of my system. Download the latest version of AEOMI Backupper to make sure I'm using the latest version, tells me to uninstall the old one first, I do that, then when I install the new version and try to activate it says the license has been used the maximum amount of times, that's ludicrous, I just uninstalled thus the license is no longer being used is it? Clearly this is a devious attempt to get desperate people to buy additional licenses because I now have to wait upwards of 24 hours until my ticket is answered."
With Backupper, when upgrading to new version, to keep your license activated, please do not directly upgrade using the app. Instead, use the link to manually download Backupper Setup / Pro.exe, which is different than Backupper standard / free.exe, install that, it will keep the license. If you have not done this, if you have already auto-upgraded using the app, then please contact Aomei using the link, and they will quickly reset the license for you.
