CLIP STUDIO PAINT determines the start-up grade based on license information registered to the application.

If the product starts up the previous grade, please check the serial number that has been authenticated.

For Windows users: You can check this by going to [Help] menu→ [Version Information].

For macOS users: You can check this by going to [CLIP STUDIO PAINT] menu→ [Version information].

If the sixth digit of your serial number is not the letter "E," a grade other than EX has been registered.
