I already created my account and I can freely get to the SPF but i lost the key after that and now I am unable to use the SUM Launcher. Is there any way to regain the access key?

Use the Key Resender.
Once you have the email again, save it (it told you to save it the first time...) and bookmark or save the page it links you to. If you Have a Humble Store account, claim the page. That way it will be added to your library.

Yes.

Here's the thread.

Are you going to explain the details of your problem or should we start guessing wildly?

EDIT: Had a look at your post history. You never explained exactly why you couldn't access your email account anymore and why you couldn't log into your Humble Store account any longer.

Have you sent an email to Wolfire? They have managed to get people out of difficult situations before. In your case it seems to be pretty bleak, because you apparently somehow managed to lose access to everything related to your purchase of the game (seriously; how the hell does this work?), but you have your account here and that one is registered as a preorder account.

Send them an email.

And try to get access to your email account so that you can use the Key Resender. Contact your email provider. Email accounts don't just vanish. Either you have deleted it, or the account was only available for a limited time, or the provider has changed how he handles accounts and has deleted older ones in the process. What provider have you been using (e.g. Gmail, Arcor)? Ask them about it.

I don't mean to be mean, but I HATE humble bundle :x I don't think their humble for making it hard or near impossible to redeem things from steam after you paid $30 for a game and have to pay again to get what you want. the link doesn't work for me, the sight sucks, and I can't get my code :x :x :x :x all I want is my code, and I have the steam one. I don't think the game is fun with only vanilla and I might as well completely ignore or just give it a bad review. Unless it's fixed and I can finally have fun when I play, then I won't enjoy it or be any nicer than I am now

That's because you haven't read the instructions properly. You are not supposed to click on the link in the first post. You are supposed to copy it, paste it into your address bar and substitute the YOURCDKEY part with your actual CD Key.

This is really getting annoying. People have to point this out every single page. Are people illiterate, lazy or are the instructions somehow unclear? Why is no one reading at least some of the previous posts in here or uses the search function?

Sorry for that, but this is really getting on my nerves.




That helps a metric SH*T ton! thanks! :D

Hello there, around christmas time I bought overgrowth from hundle bundle and have it on my steam account, but i cannot access my CD key for using the SUMlauncher since hundlebundle says that i haven't bought the game. My account says that i haven't bought any games but i bought overgrowth :twisted: I really don't know what to do so is there anyway you can help me???

Any suggestions aswell?

If you have bought it from the Humble Store, you don't get a CD key. The CD key is only used for transferring the game from Steam to the Humble Store. You already have your SPF. That's the one you had to use to verify your account on the forums here.

When you bought the game on the Humble Store, you should have received an email with a link to your download page. The Humble Store has a feature that let's people with an account claim these pages. The reason why you cannot find it s probably because you have not claimed the page. Find the email and open your preorder page. Make sure you are signed in and claim it.

If you don't have that email anymore, use this link.

This helped me a lot, i used the Steam CD key directly on here. The thing is that i cannot enter Sum Launcher. I put the Key in but it wont let me get in. It says, "Error connecting to authentication server, Unable to reach authentication page" if there is already a forum thread on this please link me to it.

You need to use your SPF Key for the SUMLauncher.

When I follow the link to humblebundle, "https://www.humblebundle.com/s?key=YOURCDKEY" it says unknown key. I bought the game from steam and have my CD key, but I'm not getting anywhere to put it in. Has the link changed, or is something wrong with humblebundle? I would appreciate and help I can get. I'm very eager to download some mods.

You need to replace the YOURCDKEY-part with your CD key. I have answered the exact same question on this page.
Twice.
It's getting kind of frustrating to repeat stuff when it's so obvious that maybe one person ends up reading it.
