    Hi,

    KMS activation worked, but when I go to "PC Settings" then "Activation" then I click on "Activate", it just loads for a few seconds then nothing happen.

    What's wrong ?

    Thanks.

    Unfortunately yes they do, but i blame myself for this one, should have checked everything was unchecked before i permanently removed (temporary) deleted topics of the last 20 pages :eek:

    As we all know, some data can be recovered even when accidentally deleted, aren't they?

    So hopefully we can recover something. I was typing up the VirtualBox Solution and gave me Invalid Thread.
    Any time frame on a possible recovery.

    Years ago, I moderated a medical forum for a period of some months and we always had a mirror running with identical data just in case if such accidents might happen. One day we had a total collaps of the server and we could easily recover from the mirror the next day. I did not expect MDL to not have such security function.
    OK we blame it on Sandy and try again... lol

    Surely we need to get the thread restarted links for scripts and guides and we are back in business

    There might still be a google cache of the first page. Occasional clean up of a long thread is not necessarily bad, if the first post at least can be recreated.
