Why should I pay for using Windows Mail? As far as I know, this is a free program included in Windows.
Windows Mail (formerly Outlook Express) is written by Microsoft and included in Windows Vista and Windows XP. We in no way claim any copyrights and do not attempt to sell you this wonderful classic software. We only offer you a recovery tool, WM Restore Tool, that helps you to use the specified software on new operating systems (e.g. Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7) where it is not installed by default.
I have purchased a license. Where is my license key?...
As it's mentioned in the Purchase License chapter of this manual, after doing payment you should send your SystemID to our sales department. We need your SystemID to generate your license key. Usually, we send you an e-mail with a proposal to send your SystemID. You should specify a valid e-mail address when paying for a product to be possible to contact you. We usually try to contact you within a few hours after receiving the money from you (but no later than 48 hours, according to the requirements of the payment system).
I have paid for my license, please send me the license key. I have installed the WM Restore Tool on a temporary server, the next weeks I will install WM Restore Tool on a new server. (Next month, year I am going to buy new computer or change my hard drive...) Can I ask for another license later?
You can ask for a temporary license key (with Expiration Date). In this case you will be able to ask for another license key (even for another computer) at the end of the license period. If you want to get a temporary license key instead of permanent, you should ask about it before getting a license. By default, we give you a permanent license key tied to a single SystemID.
What happens to my license if I reinstalled WM Restore Tool? What happens to my license if I reinstalled Windows? Do I have to ask for a new license key?
When removing and reinstalling the WM Restore Tool, your license key is stored in the Windows Registry. No need to enter it again.
The license is tied to your single computer (SystemID). If you use normal hardware computer, SystemID depends only on your hardware and does not depend on your Windows operation system. After reinstallation of your Windows you can use your license key without problem. In this case, you must re-enter the license key. If you use Virtual machine, SystemID not saved due to the lack of hardware as such. You should install WM Restore Tool on normal hardware computer to avoid problems of this kind. Free replacement of license key is allowed during license support period (1 year) and no more than 2 (two) times.
I am using a desktop at home but also a laptop when I go on a trip. Also, I sometimes work on my office computer... I never use both computers at the same time. Can you please give me a license key that will work on both machines?

It should also be noted that the lifetime of the hard drive is at least 2-3 years (and this at a very rough handling). Free replacement of license key is allowed during license support period (1 year) and no more than 2 (two) times. Please contact our sales department.
I cloned my hard drive using the special program, deactivated the old one (because of hardware problem) and started the new one. But the WM Restore Tool does not work. Then I removed WM Restore Tool from my machine, rebooted and reinstalled it. But the same problem...
The license is tied to a single computer (SystemID). Your SystemID can not be “cloned”, it depends on your hardware (hard drive). Free replacement of license key is allowed during license support period (1 year) and no more than 2 (two) times. Please contact our sales department.
I have reinstalled Windows and my SystemID changed. I use Virtual Machine (VMWare etc) and my virtual server crashed last Friday. Can you please send me another license?
