License not showing on x86

Greetings to all ! After purchasing a license key for a x86 router OS, and entered through Winbox / system / License , restarted the router but nothing shows there .

Does it take some time (hours) for Mikrotik to activate something ? Also my order shows fine on MT portal account , but when I click "All CHR keys" no keys show there either !

P.S. Software ID was entered accurately .

Any help would be appreciated

All CHR keys?

x86 is one product, CHR is another, contact support

True ! Too much speed ! :-(

When installing a x86 CD .iso through VMware (as I have done) on a remote server is there any difference from choosing the VMDK image in regard to the router (to do the same thing), as to the operation/capabilities of the router ?

They are identical files, only the licensing changes.
Using x86 on virtualized environment makes no sense.

Thank you !

Yes indeed to the second part ! Like I said too fast of a click , too tired when did that, and didn't pay any attention to the obvious. The intention is to move that router (from that machine) in a month, to another machine so I may have to buy a new license (I have contacted support) ...
