You should have received installation instructions together with the key file. Did you not receive those? Anywhere, here they are:
Please download the latest version from here:

http://madshi.net/madCollection.exe

Then please uncompress the attached key file and copy it to the same folder where the installer is located. Finally please start the installer. It should now show you which license you you have.
Basically the important thing is to copy the (unzipped) key file to the same folder where madCollection.exe is located, *BEFORE* running the installer. Then the installer will automatically pick up the key file and install the commercial edition.

Btw, you don't need to uninstall the non-commercial edition. You can just run the installer another time to update to the commercial edition.

Hmm, thanks

Probably I missed this line in the email.

If I run the installer again, it also works, or I must uninstall the current version before?
