I'm not trying to debate you on this, Corey. I'm just saying that WSA will work whether it asks for your email or not. I'm not sure the issue I had with B&S even had anything to do with asking for my email, as it has normally worked even when it didn't ask. B&S can just be wonky at times, I've discovered.@ wrote:

This morning, I went to the console, copied my keycode, downloaded the latest installer, ran it, pasted my keycode, and I still got an email. This is on a machine where I had previously had it installed.

I think the answer Parham got from support is correct. It confirms your email from the keycode via the Web Console. That's why even when it doesn't ask at installation it still works perfectly fine. 😉@ wrote:

It does what it does.

Cool. Thanks for letting us know, Nic.@ wrote:
We finally got to the bottom of this mystery. Apparently there's a registry key that remembers if you've installed previously and determines whether it asks you for your email or not:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionwInstallTime
Ok. Thanks, Nic.@ wrote:
That would explain it then!
Thanks for clarifying that, Nic. Much appreciated.@ wrote:
It's just not created by the beta installer but it should be there for the regular installer.
Hi Nic. I'm on the BETA at the moment.@ wrote:
Also are you on the beta build or the regular build?
