Activation is gone again and again...

Thread needs solution

One of my Computers is and must stay completely offline, therefore I am using the Offline Activation method on it.
On that machine, in earlier True Image versions, I often had a "Hardware-ID has changed" message after reboot and I had to put in my Offline Activation code again.
But a "Repair Install" always solved that problem and everything was fine.

Now I have updated to the latest version 2016 build 5634. I don't get any message but after every reboot activation is gone!
"Repair Install" doesn't help anymore.

It is very boring to paste the code again and again and again!
Is there any solution?

OK, in another forum I found a solution which works for me, but this should not be necessary. I have to paste my key into the batch file and run it with administrator rights:

@echo off

set key=PutYourOfflineActivationCodeHere

if %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%==x86 (
"%ProgramFiles%\Acronis\TrueImageHome\TrueImageLauncher.exe"
:loop1
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Settings" /v ActivationId /d %key% /f 1>nul 2>&1
ping -n 6 127.0.0.1 >NUL
tasklist | find /i "TrueImage.exe" >nul
if errorlevel 1 exit
goto loop1
) else (
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Acronis\TrueImageHome\TrueImageLauncher.exe"
:loop2
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Settings" /v ActivationId /d %key% /f 1>nul 2>&1
ping -n 6 127.0.0.1 >NUL
tasklist | find /i "TrueImage.exe" >nul
if errorlevel 1 exit
goto loop2
)

Isn't there any official solution?

Why doesn't "Repair Install" fix that obviously bug no more?

Nobody else?
