Message

Hamachi Mediation server has rejected your login request.

Detail

This is fairly rare problem that would typically occur for one of three reasons.

  • A corruption of Identity information caused either by another piece of software on the machine or poking around the registry/config without care.
  • Installing and running 1.0 version, then downgrading to 0.9, and then upgrading back to 1.0. If you did in fact go through this sequence, please download and run this automated fixup utility http://files.hamachi.cc/hamachi-fixup.exe (~ 90KB)

Resolution

To work around corrupt profile

  • Shut down Hamachi completely
  • Go to Start > Run > %APPDATA%
  • Rename the Hamachi folder to HamachiBackup
  • Restart Hamachi
  • You will get a new Hamachi IP by doing this, however the existing was already corrupted by something on your machine.

To fix downgrade/upgrade/downgrade issue

Note, this is almost never the cause of this error. Unless you've actually run a Windows version of Hamachi older than 1.0, use the other two solutions first.
