Title: CD Key (This Character Belongs to Someone Else)
Post by: Screaming Idiot on April 04, 2014, 07:17:52 pm
Got the message "This character belongs to someone else" again. Logged in a different Steam account and THATS WHAT I GET
Can someone reset my CD key? Steam ID is Screaming Idiot.

Only you yourself can fix this problem.
Here's what you do, go on your steam account, check your cd-key, then (through start menu) open regedit and browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MountAndBladeWarbandKeys, then check the entry for serial_key - if it is not your cd-key, change it.

Hi, I had the same message, I've checked the cd key, and it's right. Not sure what to do now.

For me it just seems random. Maybe its changing the key on its own? I had warband before i even knew what steam was. I have the info on gamersgate website. But somehow my steam key overidden the original copy? I know nothing of computers
