So when the demo ran out I ran the auto online registration, put in my numbers to make it LE, and all looked good.
 
But now when I try to use it in X2 there's no presets, amps, nothing. It does not work anymore.
 
So how do I get it working again?
 
Thanks,
Steve

You need to go to your NI store account and download/install the update stuff again. And that's not a demo version... it's technically not the full version either. It's a special Sonar version. It caused me much confusion and head scratching but that is the meat of it. Cheers.

Oh... and I'm assuming you are referring to what you got with your X1 purchase (I see that listed in your profile). If not that's what you want to use and register. Remember to always use Run As Administrator when screwing around with this type of stuff.

Right you are Beep, GR4 came with X1. Before activating it, it ran in "Demo" mode.
 
As you can see I haven't used it much. I've re-ran the activation service center software and it says all my products are active. Only, when I open GR4 there's no amps no presets no nuthin'!
 
I can download the GR4.2.2 update but that shouldn't keep GR4 from working.
 
I'd hate to reinstall X1 to get it to work, but if I have to, I guess.

There are similar threads where others reported that updating Guitar Rig solved this issue. You should not need to install X1 just to get Guitar Rig LE running.

No need to re-install X1, but you need to run GP4 (or, for that matter, GP5) in stand-alone mode for activation BEFORE running it as a VST in Sonar

Yup. Run As Admin for standalone (right of the bat) and download/install that update and you should be fine. It's been a long time since I did it but I seem to recall having no amps until I installed that 4.2 thingy. Good luck.

BTW reinstalling X1 or even doing a custom install just to get at GR4 will only result in the same problem. You need to update. Also if it keeps being a jerk you can call up NI and see what's up. 

So to review...

1) Always Run As Admin while registering/updating

2) Always use the standalone version while registering/updating 

3) Download and install ALL available GR updates in your NI store account

Cheers

I will have to call NI when I get the chance. All the Service Center does is loop over and over again.
 
"Service Center was successfully updated and will restart now. OK"
 And each time I click OK it goes through the process all over again.

???

Are you just using the built in service center thingy? Actually open your browser and navigate to their website then log into your account there to access the download. The service center is just to register. I don't think it will download update... especially an upgrade.

Cheers.
