Error message "Error reading or decrypting registration information"

Common side effects of this issue:

• Error appears while starting the client.
• Hornetdrive stop/crashes.
• Reinstallation does not help.

The cause may be a damaged central file on the local system, in which keys are stored. This file is normally not removed during uninstallation.

The following steps are necessary:

• Exit and uninstall Hornetdrive
• Delete the internal Hornetdrive data directory under %appdata%\Hornetdrive
  • e.g. C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\HORNETDRIVE
  • Note: AppData is a hidden directory and is only visible if the path is entered directly or the Explorer is set up accordingly. Win + R can also be used to navigate into "%appdata%".
• New installation of Hornetdrive. The damaged file is then recreated and the problem should be solved.
