I have an old programme called Movie plus 6 from serif.

[Veejasy]

I have many serif and affinity programmes but for movie editing I use movie plus. I have the reg. no's but have recently updated to windows 11.

I have tried to open a video that I finished, but it says it's locked and I should click automatic unlock or manual unlock. Neither of which work.

It then says contact tech. support which doesn't take me to anywhere. Has anyone got advice as to how I can run this programme please or are there other programmes which would be able to speak to movie plus 6 and open the file please.

Welcome to the forums @Veejasy

This site is for the Affinity applications only and Serif are no longer providing support for legacy applications.

How do I download my Movie X6 to my new computer?

If you don’t have the original installer then you possibly can’t as that software is, as far as I know, not available for download as it’s no longer supported or available for purchase.

Since this isn't the right place to discuss the legacy software, I would suggest looking at the unofficial forums via the link given in the thread that I mentioned earlier.

Installers for other ‘legacy’ software products from Serif were available from CommunityPlus, their official support site for those products, right up until it closed. MoviePlus was never made available for download from there because of the complex licensing agreements that kept the purchase price as low as possible.

I do have the code numbers sent by the Serif team in January, but this does not seem to work?

As mentioned earlier in the thread, Serif is no longer offering support for that software.

Your best bet would probably be to look for support here: https://punster.me/serif/index.php

Therefore, if one does not have a Disc—because it was previously downloaded from Seriff—then there is no hope of placing it on a new computer. Alfred's Forum is closed for new inquiries. Can anyone suggest any answer to this problem? I have all the codes, and Serriff even recently sent me a copy of every code I already had; so are the codes not enough to place on a new computer?  Thanking everyone in advance!

The ‘Register’ link invokes a message about not accepting new registrations, but that’s just wording which I unfortunately don’t know how to change. What it should say is that automated signup has been disabled.

As indicated in the ‘Tips and Announcements’ panel, you need to send me an email. I’ll sign you up manually as soon as possible after I hear from you.
