Licensed copy of GM8.1 reverted back to Lite!

Hi,

So I have had my license for GM8.1 bought since it came out.
To be more exact, I bought 7.0, then went from it to 8.0 and then 8.1.
And now, after almost 8 years (was it?) of me owning the full legal license and having it installed on the same computer AND operating system (also my laptop later), it started to show me this:
gm81 asks for license.jpg (enlarge it and read it)
For no reason at all, I cannot access my full version Game Maker 8.1 anymore.
I have to use Lite. This is the 2nd time this has happened in the past month.
The first time it fixed itself and I have no idea why, but this time it is not going away.
Apparently this is not happening to anyone else, but me, because I see posts around the GMC about GM8.1 projects.
I have paid fairly for my product and I intend to use it forever if I so wish it, so this should not happen.

On the YoyoGames helpdesk there is no category to search for help, so I ask that you forward this to them somehow.

And I have a license that I have tried entering in the field to register my product AGAIN for no reason.
But, for my legal full license key that I enter, it gives an error!

Also, about what the dialog box says: I have a constant internet connection and have restarted my PC multiple times.

That would be all.
