Contact Tech support directly. The registration process has changed since somewhere last year:

Hi Martin The Encore updater just does 32 bit ViaCAD builds. If you purchased a 64 bit build from EvoSoft, you will need to get 64 bit updates from EvoSoft. I'll private email the latest 64 bit build to be sure you are current. Tim

I didn't even get to the update - I just tried to run my previously installed & registered version of ViaCad Pro 9 and it wouldn't even launch the application it just comes up with a Encore error screen that says Invalid Code: [0]! : Here is your Request Code / Please enter your activation code screen.

>> I just tried to run my previously installed & registered version of ViaCad Pro 9 I think you will need to contact Encore Tech Support. Depending on your version, perhaps some hardware or the OS changed since your last run. Tim

It took me three downloads and attempted executions to get 32-bit Win 1184 VCP update to fire up on the Asus 8" Win 8.1 tab that I use for commuter convenience. It gave two initial problems, the first the download ceased and left the update file name as an empty file. Second download gave an unexpected "this program can't run on this device" or something wacky like that. Third download it fired up and went as expected, but then the program apparently crashed, with a message saying it couldn't finish. Downloaded again, and tried again, and the message went "file corrupted or damaged, can't run". Shut everything down, went for a run, fired it up again and the current version came up as 1184, so it must've completed the install and then crashed. An aggravating PITA is my summary.
