    Can't Select "Secure" mode

    I just downloaded the trial version of the reference ripper. In "options", under ripping mode, the button for secure is grey and won't let me select it. I saw a previous post about this mentioning a new build or something but that post was from many months ago, so i don't know if that still applies.
    thanks,

    Check dBpoweramp Configuration to see if your trial has expired. If you have previously installed dMC, I believe it considers your trial time to start from the original install. If you do a total dMC uninstall as mentioned here: http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=13285 you will reset the counter.

      Thanks LtData.

      I checked the configuration and it says that I still have 21 days left to the trial- I have never installed the program before yesterday.

      I also just installed the reference trial version on another computer to see if that makes any difference and the same thing is happening- the secure mode can not be selected.

        What options do you have set in the CD ripper options?

          Ripping Method: Burst, because I can't choose secure

          AccurateRip: It is checked for Query Results
          I have submitted 8 results to the database

          Meta Data: No check for "Write Album Art"

          CD Rom: none of the options are checked

              I went to page http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dbpoweramp-reference.htm and downloaded "dBpoweramp Reference R12.4 Trial" and then installed the reference codec pack. -mt

                Try uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Also check in dBpoweramp Configuration as to the trial status.

                  O.K. I uninstalled and reinstalled it. That in itself didn't solve the problem, but along the way I figured it out.
                  I installed it when I was in my administrator account and ran it as an administrator and the secure mode is selectable and seems to be working.
                  However, when I run it in my normal user account, it still won't let me select secure mode.
                  I suppose I am okay running the program as administrator, but I generally like to stay out of my admin account as much as possible for security reasons, so I would ideally like to be able to use secure mode in the user account if that is possible.
                  If this is not just a strange fluke for me, it might be good to make this more apparent in the install directions (unless I missed it), so it doesn't take others as much time to figure this out.
                  Anyhow, thanks for the quick responses to my questions. -mt

                    Try switching the CD ROM communication (in Options) to Windows Limited, if it is not already.

                    Also, what version of Windows are you running? Try giving your account full read/write permissions to the dMC install directory and see if that help any.

                      Hello, i'm also can't use "secure" mode in user account. I have read/write permissions for dMC folder, CD-ROM communication set to Windows Limited (in other modes it also don't work). I'm use Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and dbpoweramp R13.3. Under admin account "secure" option is available.

                      Sorry for my english

                        You require a registered version of dBpoweramp to activate secure mode.
