Registration invalidated after cloning hard drive
After cloning that drive to an SSD on the same computer, QuickBooks began reporting that it was not registered and displayed a 30-day grace-period message.
I own a perpetual, outright-purchased licence for QuickBooks Pro 2014 (UK), product number [removed].
I have also encountered Error 3371, Status Code 1, and entitlement error 9558.
The SHA256 hashes of key installation files on both drives match. I have tried synchronising licence data and running the QuickBooks Tool Hub installation diagnostic, without resolving the registration problem.
As this is a perpetual licence that I purchased outright, I expected it to continue working.
Could anyone please advise whether my existing licence can be validated or its activation restored?
