BUG YouTube downloader Activated, but still says "Free version" on first use

[KidJoe]

I purchased Downloader way way back. After upgrading to v4.0.0.2, I was prompted to authorize again when I first launched it. So I entered my email and password, and was told it authroized successfully.

The first time I tried to download a Youtube video it told me I have the free version, and gave me the "buy" screen. Netflix and Disney+ seemed to work ok.

When I check license info, YouTube Downloader is listed as authorized




After exiting StreamFab, and restarting it, I was able to download from Youtube without notifying me its the free version.

First, why am I being prompted with the "authorization" screen every time I do an upgrade (has happened with the past several versions)? Once authorized, shouldn't it stay authorized?

Second, I don't recall having to exit/restart in the past. If an exit/restart is now needed after authorizing, can I suggest you add a notification that its necessary, along with a button to "restart now"?

Normally it should not need to authorize again after update, and should not need to exit/restart, please send us the log folder, we will check, thank you.

This is not correct. Every update for the past few months has prompted for reauthorization. Every single one.

Sorry for that. The developer will fix the reauthorization issue in the next version.

I have to second this, I just never brought it up. I usually do it once every upgrade but it would be nice to not have re-authorize every upgrade.
