So... You purchased MC and now you want to actually register it so you can use it. Well, I'm here to help! The first step is to load up MC. If you're still running an unregistered trial copy, you should get this Dialog box when you load it up:

I'm going to assume you've already run through the Purchase process, and not go into that (otherwise you wouldn't be at this step and be having trouble yet). If you don't have MC set to show the trial reminder, then you can get the above dialog while MC is running at any time from under the Help menu.

Of course, if your trial has expired, then the Continue button won't be available, but the other two buttons are still available so no worries. To start the "Restore Process", click the [i]Restore[/i] button. MC will then load a small dialog box which asks you how you'd like to restore your license. There are two choices: Restore from Internet, and Restore license from file (.mjr). Unless you already have a MJR license file saved, you'll want to choose [i]Restore from Internet[/i] and click OK.

This will launch Internet Explorer and take you to the J. River License Restoration Page shown below.

On this page, enter your restore code (which you should have received via email when you purchased MC) in the box provided and click [i]Restore[/i]. This will take a second, and then (if all goes well) you [i]should[/i] see this:
