Just installed 4.0 on Win 7 pro. I can’t get past the authentication screen; can’t even type or paste in my license #. The following immediately pops up, when I click OK, it all goes away. I’m glad I installed this on the PC, not the Mac I’m actually using for production work.
“Error loading page”
“Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates”
This error message usually turns up due to a proxy. Unity works with proxies unless they are non pass through. Manual activation flow (as you already did) is the solution.
