I am using version 2022.8.0.11596 (released Aug 2nd) as a free working version now, is version 2022.1.0.11328 an earlier version?
Emsisoft Emergency Kit paid now?

All good things must get paid at some point. Lots of good folks working on said products to make them as good or trusted as they're, after all. If the home version of EEK is reasonably priced, I don't think it will be too much of an issue. Seeing as the previously linked post about ERK specifically states business and enterprise.
That is correct, 2022.1.0.11328 is an earlier version.

Today, when I downloaded it again and verified it, I was in a state where I couldn't proceed unless I cleared the license. It was definitely working when I made this post, but it doesn't seem to work anymore. disappointing.
Did some testing with the latest version. Edit a2settings.ini by adding Type=8 under [LicenseType]. Run it once, you will be asked for a license and the setting will change to Type=14.
Change it back to 8 and it should stay that way...and you should be good to go.
Can someone please confirm this works for them also?

From the update blog it seems that ERK will be an enterprise version of EEK. It is quite likely that EEK will remain free for personal use. I use Emsisoft Anti Malware and am still able to create a completely updated version of EEK with my EAM that could be shared on another computer without any license.
Edit: if anyone would like to inspect the EEK created by EAM it'll be up on this link for a week

Wow, I just got off the chat with their support. Silly fast and I got it confirmed that it's a link error, but they are actually updating the name EEK to ERK and the good news is, it will still be a 100% free version.

A Japanese site that introduces online software also covered this topic. After all, it seems that the link is wrong and it will take a few days to fix it. EEK will continue to be offered free of charge for home users.Wow, I just got off the chat with their support.

If the official community still existed, I'm sure support would have been fed up with dealing with this issue.

It looks like the fix is complete. When I tried it, the scan completed without being asked about the license
Yep, worked for me too. But still, they didn't fix the double taskbar preview.

Sorry for the late reply to this. I just want to confirm that the Emsisoft Emergency Kit is still free for non-commercial use, just like it always was. We essentially only renamed the commercial licensing to 'Emsisoft Remediation Kit' and gave it its own product page and downloadable package that skips the free option on first startup.
The download links were fixed as well.
Free Emsisoft Emergency Kit: Emsisoft - Emergency Kit: Portable Malware & Virus Scanner
Commercial Emsisoft Remediation Kit: Emsisoft - Remediation Kit

I completely understand your point but please note that specially in the current hard times, it costs to keep the good developers.
For example in the central Europe, hiring a simple employee with no special qualifications would cost about 4-4500 Euros per month for a company.
I am sure companies like EMSISOFT who have several qualified developers would be paying even double.
So I would not go mad at companies like EMSISOFT who are claiming that they are not selling their customers data unlike some companies that have done this in the past (Avast) or like others do not implement miners in their software (norton)
