Trial expired as soon I download

[izheizzy]

I just downloaded the trial for the first time but when I open it, it says the trial is expired. What do I do?

Sorry about that. Probably what's happening is your computer's date and time aren't set correctly. This makes Magic think the trial period is being tampered with.

Can you try updating the date and time in your operating system? It should fix the problem, but if not, definitely let me know.

particularly if you dual boot you might want to double check your date/time after reboot

My time is set correctly, I even set it back to see if that would fix it, nope. Even redownloaded it with different time settings, and I'm not dual booting so I don't know.

Ok, thanks. One other thought: Is it possible you've installed Magic before? Perhaps the trial already expired a while ago.

I'll try to think if there's anything else that could be causing this.
