How to install Macromedia Studio MX 2004

[susang68313008]

I have an old software that I tried to install on a new computer, but it won't accept the serial #.  I used it as a trial for 30 days and now it's wanting me to pay for it.  Does anyone know how I can get this enabled without buying the new version?   I don't want to have to pay for it again as I the old software will suffice.  Thanks!

Sorry, Adobe no longer offers a way to activate that software. They removed it several years ago and no longer support it in any way.

20yo software, you must be joking. Why not try VSCode instead, its free and you can instruct the AI to create the pages of your site. No coding experience required.

For good reason. It's an obsolete code editor from early 2000s. It's useless on the modern web.

Get a modern code editor (paid or free).
