If the Key Activation Fails, Follow the Below Process:
Step 1: Delete the "BC4Key.txt" in the Folder Path "C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 4"
Step 2: Open the Application "Beyond Compare 4". Navigate To "Help >> Enter Key".
Step 3: Paste the Above mentioned Key again. Now, it should Activate.

Thanks @IssacEinstein. Same key is working now.

The problem is the Beyond Compare version, with version 4.2.2 it served me completely.

It worked for me but rather than enter the code into the software you just need to create a file called BC4Key.txt in the Folder Path "C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 4" and paste the key into that. Then when you open Beyond Compare it's already registered as the pro version. My version is 4.15 so maybe it doesn't work with later versions

I am having last trial left and using the portable version 4.4.7 (build 28397) (kept at C:\Users\user\Desktop\Beyond Compare 4\BCompare.exe), and I have:

  1. delete all files from users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Scooter Software/Beyond Compare 4
  2. no BC4Key.txt in the Folder Path C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 4.

But still getting the This license key has been revoked error.

Is there any permanent way to get the pro license (either for version 4.4.7 or 5.0.6?
