Does this fix the issue " SSD could not be verified on server check proxy"?

I tried the software and it doesn't even let me change some of the settings for my 980 Pro let alone do a diagnostic scan.

I updated to this weeks ago through the update notice in the Magician software. Very easy to do. BTW, I have no problems with settings for my 980 Pro 500GB or my 980 Pro 2TB version, diagnostics work fine.

hmmm....

"Users should update this SSD toolbox to version 8.0.1."

Mine says 8.0.1 is the latest version. I'd recommend you reinstall...Also, mine opens on a small screen every time, so I'd advise you look more carefully at the software before making weird pronouncements about it. Works perfectly here. My Samsung firmware has also been updated more than once. That's wrong, too.

Jesus, it also now launches full screen instead of an appropriately sized window and is not manually resizable. Good thing Samsung never updates the firmware of their drives so I don't have to launch it.
