Quartus legacy license generator not working?

I have some projects to maintain with Quartus 8.0 and the licence generator just gives errors :

There is an issue in generating the license for this provided NIC/Host ID: 8C04BA3E7DD3

Please check your NIC/Host ID and try again. If you still encounter problems, please contact our customer support.

Intel FPGA Applications 24/7 Technical Support: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/mysupport

And if I try and contact Intel direct, I get another error that tells me im not authorised to contact them.

Any ideas?

    ​Guys and gals at Intel/Altera

    After 2 weeks I still don't have a working license. I have used Altera since 1993, and its now come to the point where I cant even get a license

    Please sort this out. All options provided so far either reject the NIC, says its invalid in a later email, and for Winnies link doesn't provide a response at all. No license. Even this forum is laggy and hard to use!

      ​Hello.

      The license generator is broken and the last message I had from Intel/Altera is that they are working on it. I had to get a temporary license emailed to me after 3 weeks of hassele on here trying to get a license.

    Hello Vicky,

    Some days ago, Winnie sent to me a one-year license file and today he kept me informed about the fact that they are working to fix the license webpage.

    So, it's ok for me and I consider the issue as closed for now.

    Thanks and best regards,

    Guillaume.
