How to enter license key and get back existing Fireshot Pro

Question

How to enter license key?
I am long standing Fireshot Pro user.
Now Fireshot seems to has lost its Pro status probably since Firefox Quantum update. I searched in vain where to enter my license key. Not in Options, not in dropdown menu. Needed to register in forum to get to answers. The help in the forum shows the previous interface. Is somewhat annoying wasting time to get back what was working.
Thanks in advance for instructions.

Fireshot version: can't find
OS: win 7 enterprise SP1 64 bit
Firefox 57.0.2 (64 bit)

Accepted Answer

Hello, I'm sorry for not answering for such a long time. I suspect, the problem is caused by the new technology adopted by Firefox Quantum. This made the previous version of FireShot useless, and the newest version requires some permissions now (for the security's sake). So, solution is the following: 1. Install the Pro features: https://getfireshot.com/fireshot-install.exe 2. Restart Firefox and make sure you see the 'S' button. 3. Click the menu, and check, if you see the 'Switch to Pro' item. 4. If you cannot see this, but you see the 'Install advanced features', please check the %appdata%\FireShot\firefox folder. It should exist and contain some files. If it does not exist, or it's empty, please check your system permissions.

Thank you guys for your update!
