**Request Type:**  
My trial license expired after less than one day, while the website says it is 15 days of trial access.

**MCEBuddy Version and Type (32bit or 64bit):** 2.5 Release 7, 64-bit

**Operating System and Type (32bit or 64bit):** Windows 10 64-bit

**Summary of the problem or suggestion:** It seems like there is something wrong that my trial license expired almost immediately, i haven’t been able to fully test some of my media to see how well it performs. Are there other limitations besides just the 15 days such as # of conversions or something else?

**Steps to replicate the bug:**
