    I assume this works for some folks? I cannot get to anything with the updates.macrium.com domain.

    Edit- It's a DNS issue. Strangely I can't hit it with Cloudflare or Quad9. Google DNS gets me there.
    Edit 2- I take it back, Quad9 works.

    I use Quad9 as well. :)

    From previous occasions where things like this have happened, it appears that it can take a while for Macrium's content to replicate throughout its CDN, and sometimes the update gets advertised to users before the CDN local to those users has the available download. This is typically resolved by just waiting a little while.

    Likely in most cases but with the Cloudflare DNS servers it was not resolving that subdomain. At all. They must be blocking it for some reason.

    So I am confused. I have v7 FOUR license home and just got an email that said 50% off plus additional 25 % for upgrade price. So, how much will it cost me to go to V8 and should I get V8 anyway?

    Time for the annual Black Friday sale. This seems to be the only time of year you will see it on sale. If you want to upgrade jump on it soon or wait until next year. I upgraded when 8 was released an I am pleased with it.

    OK, but my email said it was 50% discount in addition to my 25% upgrade discount, so I am confused as to how much it should cost me. I think I can do this for about $35 which seems like it should be a good deal for a 4 pack of V8. I believe v8 is rather stable now.

    I can't verify price but I would interpret it to be similar. This is the best deal you will get for some time so do it it you are considering it. I have had no stability issues with 8. Can't say the same for 7.

    It looks like it might have been Hard_Configurator. After disabling that then restarting my machine I am in the process of creating Rescue Media (UFD).

    Edit: Yep, that did the trick.

    Great, I did it and will upgrade tomorrow. It seems to say that I can just bring up V7 and tell it to upgrade and it will add 1 of the 4 keys they sent me. Should I do 1 final V7 full image first?

    Is there a way to force install the latest build.

    My install is broken 6353 to 6392 patch fails, on mrcbtools, when I check the program folder the file is missing completely. Seems the patcher left me with a corrupted install and its stuck on 6353.

    No error, the patcher just force closes.

    Interesting deal!

    I’m still on v7 (four-pack as well); hope I get this deal too.

    Get the Reflect Download Agent from the link on this page, and use that to download the full installer.

    @MPSAN Did you have to enter a coupon code or use a special link?

    After entering my email and v7 order number the upgrade price I get is €57.95

    That's the way it worked for me. Easy upgrade with minimal effort. A final image? You can but I wouldn't consider it critical. If you were upgrading Windows maybe but to upgrade Reflect it really shouldn't be a huge deal.

    I'm sure he received the same email invitation I did. If you have not received it that may be the issue. I see your price is not in U.S. dollars. Maybe they are rolling out the offer by region? Or not to everyone? If you didn't get it maybe reach out to their sales department and see what they can do.

    I probably unsubscribed from their commercial offers...

    I took advantage of Macrium's half price sale. I figured I owed them since the last time I purchased Macrium Reflect was several years ago.

    Well, you can go on their site and see what they say is their upgrade price for you. They may ask for a v7 key, etc. Then I believe the discount is something about black Friday. I do think C57.95 is a bit high, however. Yours should be C44.23 to get the same deal.
