Activating Pluraleyes 4

I saw some other threads on here about getting PluralEyes to work, but none of them seem to apply to my problem.

I purchased a license for PluralEyes 4.0 way back when. It has transferred through the Maxon era. The last time I installed things, I was able to get it working.

Stuff I've done:

Was directed to the "Legacy Installer" which I unzipped and installed. (PluralEyes appears in my Apps & Features). I made sure the DLL files were where they needed to be. (Created the Application Extensions folder as mentioned in previous threads), and restarted Vegas 21. I see PluralEyes under Tools-->Extensions, and when I click it, I get the Maxon App popup. The first entry says "Red Giant PluralEyes 2023.0.0" There's a thing that says "No License Available" and an install button that seems to let you install every single version of PluralEyes *after* 4.0. (But since I installed the legacy installer, are these even necessary?"

If I click the "licenses" tab in that Maxon app, I see under "Perpetual Licenses" PluralEyes (4) and my computer name. Offline Expires in 7 days. And a button that says "Release"

So now what?

There doesn't seem to be any way to proceed.

Thanks,

JR

Just contact Maxon support, they can walk you through it for the last version of it you can use. For me it's 4.1.12. Don't click update in their app.

The old version works perfectly after you copy the .dll file to the Application Extensions folder located here : C:\ProgramData\VEGAS Pro\Application Extensions since you are using Vegas Pro 21.... Just don't click on updating anything afterwards.
