I never receive my free activation key

Hi,
I've tried it all. Registering on different operating systems, my phone, different email addresses, changing the spelling of my rather peculiar name with odd letters in it. But there is no activation key to be seen (yes I've looked in spam, promotions and once in desperation I even looked under the door mat to no avail).

What gives? I've got 7 followers on Instagram that are desperate to see my next post.

All the best
// Thor

Who said they are giving you a free activation key?
Have you replied to them?
Nobody on a user forum is going to be able to locate it for you.

The free version of DaVinci Resolve doesn't need an activation key as it can't be activated, the only requirement is that you register when you download it.

The activation key is only for the paid DaVinci Resolve Studio version and you get the key when you buy from either a retailer or directly from Blackmagic Design.

Both the free and paid versions can be downloaded from https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/davinci-resolve-and-fusion but note that there are different downloads for the free/Studio versions.

Ok, so I downloaded it again (from the same "Free download link"), reinstalled and this time it doesn't ask for the key. So i guess it was a temporary error on the web page.

Thanks to Roger for your kind response. And a special thank you Glenn for your invaluable contribution, what would the internet be without people like you <3
