[SOLVED]Activation Failed - Fixed as of May 13th - Please provide feedback

Hello.  I have a somewhat different message with the same failed activation outcome.  Here is requested info:

Tried offline activation: entered product key and system code using "paste" function along with 5.30 (for version #),  but see snip above.  Works fine unregistered but I'd like it to be "official."  EDIT:  At this time, I am not getting the "extended features not available" message that others have reported.  Regards.

Go here:

Sandboxie old versions

Download and install version 5.28

and you are good to go for the time being

Thanks. At least now it isn't an immediate catastrophe.

First, thank you for this link.  I don't know if I'm going to downgrade yet, as 5.30 is fully functional at the moment. Is the context menu feature present in the paid/licensed version only? If so, my unregistered v. 5.30 is functioning like it was when it was registered.  There is also no browser message or error at all like many here are reporting;  the browser opens and runs very smoothly.  I'm not an advanced user and my general usage of Sandboxie is limited, but currently having it unregistered is not hampering anything.  So, the only advantage I can see by installing 5.28 is registering it, not restoring functionality. Furthermore, yesterday, I installed a new SSD and clean-installed Windows, so there were no pre-existing Sandboxie folders to draw any prior info from. Peculiar.  

Again, thank you.  I bookmarked this page and may very well take this advice in the near future if the matter doesn't resolve in the next few days and/or functionality is affected somehow.

The problem with the old version is that it keeps popping up the "There is a new version available" thing. Or this has been fixed and I can safely install v5.28?

15 hours since v5.28 installation (option Overwrite (upgrade) the existing installation), no popups

9 sandboxes running at the same time

I reinstalled 5.28 ten days ago and had only one update notification so far and that was a few days ago.
