The Reflect X Knowledge Base is now live:


We now know the trade in offers that will be available to those with older V8, v7, and v6 one-time licences, and for recently purchased perpetual v8 licences.

Macrium said:
I purchased a one-time license
If you purchased on or after July 1st, 2024, you have three options;
  • Continue using Reflect 8 for as long as you want. You will continue to have access to 12 months technical support from the date you bought the licenses.
  • Trade in (your existing license will be deactivated after your new license is activated) your one-time license (which has one year of support from the date of purchase) and receive a 3-year Annual Plan at no extra cost. Macrium may make loyalty offers available at the end of your 3-year term. However, even without a license, Reflect always allows you to restore/recover your data (you won’t be able to make new backups). We’ve also made your backup files open-source - it’s your data and you own it.
  • NEW: Trade in (your existing license will be deactivated after your new license is activated) your one-time license (which has one year support from the date of purchase) and receive 50% off the normal annual plan price for life (must turn on auto-renew and not allow the license to expire/lapse).
Home users have 6 months from the launch of Reflect X to decide which option suits them best. Step-by-step instructions to obtain either option from the grace period will be published this week.

For Reflect Home users who purchased V8 before July 1, 2024:
You are eligible for two options. The first option is 50% off Annual plans for life. Option 2 is our “Better than Black Friday 2024 Offer:” 3 years for the price of 2:

If you choose 50% off annual plans for life, you will have to trade in your current Reflect Home V8 license.

If you choose 3 years for the price of 2, you can keep your Reflect Home V8 license. This amount must be paid up front and at the end of the plan, customers may renew based on offers available at the time (or return to your one-time license.)

For Home V6 & V7: We are offering 3 years for the price of two. This amount must be paid up front and at the end of the plan, customers may renew based on offers available at the time (or return to your one-time license.)This offer ends March 31st 2025.

If you have a Macrium Account, then the trade in offers are available there. If you don't, then you can register for a Macrium Account with the email address you used for your original purchase.

Upgrading from v8, v7 or v6

Macrium said:

Viewing your Upgrade Options​

Based on the timing of your existing license purchase and the current status of your Support and Maintenance plan, there are various personalized upgrade options available. There are multiple upgrade paths that can be accessed through the Macrium Reflect application or the Macrium Account.

Since the UK uses Day/Month/Year, I'd go for your first choice.
I think the US is only country I know that puts the month first.
Anybody else?
@Edwin is Canadian. Problem is Canada still uses both - probably because much of its trade is (was?) with USA.

Downloadable from where? Not from Macrium as far as I can tell. I've found it on a few Russian and Chinese sites though....

Latest Macrium Reflect X updates - post #650

I saw the new version listed on a Warez site, so I modified my standard MR download link to include the new version, ran it, and it downloaded the new version.

I just tried it again, from MR, and it now says access denied.

The only times the King / Queen has executive authority is to exercise their reserve powers to appoint a prime minister where there is no clear choice, dismiss a prime minister in a constituional crisis, to refuse a dissolution of parliament or refuse or terminate a prorogation of parliament. The last time such auuthority was exercised was 1834 when King William IV dismissed the Prime Minister and Lord Melbourne's Whig government and appointed the Duke of Wellington as caretaker Prime Minister,

If one does not get updates, people think it is no longer supported.

If one does get updates, people claim that is because it is not robust and buggy.

Might be hard to believe, but I actually understand the fact that there may not be any bugs to fix, hence no updates. ;-)
However on my last pc I used Raxco Perfectdisk defragger.
No updates for months on end so I went to their homepage. Gone kaput, closed down.
No warning, no courtesy email, nothing.
There one day, irrelevant and gone the next.
What am I paying for then, given that Reflect turns to crippleware if you don't renew it and there's no bug fixes, especially framed against the functionality and one-time cost of rapidly rising star Hasleo backup?
No bugs in Reflect? Fine - remove the crippleware aspect instead or embedded intermittent advertising. ;-)
Note too similar sentiment now on the Macrium forums...
Oh, I went through Paramount's 2025 lodged financials the other day too. Interesting.
On the 'cracking' aspect - don't bother looking.
I've never seen a working one yet.
Short of changing source code or being highly skilled with Ghidra or Hex-rays, you won't get a freebie but you will get infected.

Actually that power was invoked in 1975 in Australia.

On November 11, 1975, Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam was dismissed from office by the Queen's representative, Governor-General Sir John Kerr, during a severe constitutional crisis.

Sounds like you're using an older version of the script. Download the latest set and try again.

Do you have secure boot turned on? Have you revoked the CA 2011 certificates?
Only if the answer to both those questions is 'yes' would you need to update the Reflect recovery drives.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to lid hinges starting to break up this laptop has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

    Info for 2021-2026:
    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

I do, I work for a computer company and we ship 10s of laptops a day and use Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 perfectly fine, including creating the USB recovery drive and/or adding Macrium Reflect to the Windows boot menu options

Yes Secure Boot is on and Windows Security reports all certificates are up to date so I question if post 689 is accurate.
