Perpetual license 1 year updates?

[hazehk]

Hi, I recently switched from substance monthly to a perpetual license back in February of this year, I was under the impression that perpetual licenses came with 1 year of free updates, but I am unable to launch painter 2019. Is this expected behavior?

When you stop your subscription and get a perpetual license (for $49), you stop getting updates unless you purchase a yearly maintenance ($75).
A new Perpetual license purchase does come with one year of free updates though, but is more expenssive ($149)

Oh right, I must have confused the two options. Thanks for the clarification!
