Thank you for that answer. I got disconnected from Anystream with that same error. In my case, I sent an email as well.The servers are down, it already happend once in the past. Just wait for them to restart them.
You only pay once instead of the need to renew it every year.Also what is the point of a "lifetime license" when it still has to be confirmed by your servers?

No, only that you don't have to renew it. The DRM stuff itself happens on their server as far as I understand it.But I thought the lifetime license would also allow to use the software offline.
Because it get's no answer from the server and the only message is that the license is unknown. Maybe it also thinks that this means it is deactivated, but maybe it is only an error because there is no other error message. Maybe it should be changed since it is already the second time that it happens.why does the system tell me "License unknown" "Your license has been deactivated"?

Not entirely true. The UHD decryption and also some BD stuff is happening on their server or at least needs a connection to get the information. Also some issues for AS have been fixed with a server update and no new AS version.If the DRM handling for media content would be done on a server you would not need to get updates for the software. Of course this is done locally on the PC - the old AnyDVD before it was moved to RedFox also worked that way. It's only the license check which is has to be verified by a server, even if you have a lifetime license.
