--- Quote from: RoGeorge on October 14, 2021, 09:52:13 pm ---The licenses remain valid over firmware upgrades, and the key was cracked, not stolen or leaked. Pleas don't argue based on assumptions only.
Anybody have a screen capture to attach here with the new Rigol logo in blue, please?

Did you write the firmware of this scopes?
No? Then don't discard any possibility.
What proof do you have that the private key has been cracked? Could even be leaked on purpose by Rigol. Eg: if riglol didn't exist, I would have bought a 4 channel 100 MHz scope from Siglent instead of the DS1054Z.
Rigol could even change the public/private key and tell the costumers that installed purchased licenses to reinstall them again with new codes.
Also, your tone is not helping the interchange of ideas here. You are trying to sound like you are fed up with "stupid people", but you're just discarding possibilities basing yourself on unfounded principles.

- Auto mode would never set positions or scale right for either vertical or or horizontal
- Auto mode kept kicking CH2 on even without a probe attached and then using that to base scaling on
I gave up early on in figuring out what was messed up, it was easier to kick off recalibrate and walk away for half an hour instead. It's back to working fine.

Recalibration should be done after each firmware update, whether it all seems to be working OK or not. It's specified in the update instruction:
--- Code: ---This documentation is designed to provide guidance to customers on how to
upgrade the MSO/DS1000Z series digital oscilloscope to the version in the
"DS1000Z(ARM)update.rar" file.
The applicable models include DS1XX4Z, DS1XX4Z Plus, DS1XX4Z-S Plus,
MSO1XX4Z and MSO1XX4Z-S.
New versions of firmware are available at the following website.
http://int.rigol.com/Support/SoftDownload/3
[Notices]
- Before upgrading, please carefully refer to the
"MSO_DS1000Z Release Notes.txt" file to obtain the updated information of
the firmware version.
- Please make sure your USB disk can be read correctly. MSO/DS1000Z series
is required to use a USB Flash drive disk with FAT32 format.
- During the upgrade process, please do not cut off power and pull out the
USB disk, otherwise the instrument will fail to work normally.
- MSO/DS1000Z series digital oscilloscope does not support the downgrading
operations.
[Upgrading Procedures]
1. Copy the upgrade file DS1000ZUpdate.GEL to the root directory of the USB
disk.
2. Keep the instrument in the power-on state, then insert the USB disk into
the USB HOST interface (next to the Power key).
3. A prompt message is automatically displayed on the interface, reminding
you that an upgrade file has been detected and ask you whether to upgrade
it. You can click Ok to start to upgrade.
4. During the upgrade, the instrument interface will display the current
upgrade progress.
5. When the interface displays "Upgrade finished!", restart the instrument.
6. Check whether the firmware version number has been updated
(press Utility -> System -> System Info).
7. After upgrading has been completed, perform the self-calibration
operation. Make sure that the instrument has been warmed up or has been
operating for more than 30 minutes before the self-calibration.
a. Disconnect all input channels;
b. Press Utility -> Self-Cal, then click Start to perform the
self-calibration.
c. It takes about 30 minutes to perform the self-calibration.
d. After the calibration has been completed, a prompt message will be
displayed on the interface. Then, restart the instrument.
[Troubleshooting]
- If the instrument failed to read the upgrade file from the USB disk,
please try to replace the USB disk.
- If the problem still persists, please try to re-download the upgrade file.
- If the problem still persists after performing the above two operations,
please visit the website int.rigol.com to find contacts in your area.

Don't get yourself in a rabbit's hole of conspiracy theories BS or you'll be here talking only to yourself very fast. Respect people that answer you even if you don't like their answer.
The key was cracked as any other riglol/rigup private key because it takes miliseconds to do it. The FWs never included the private keys.
Nobody here needs to be the original programmer, they just need to know how to read code besides knowing somethings about asym crypto.

Did you even bother to read the changelog?
It says things like:
Version: 00.04.05.02.00 Date: 2021-07-24
2. Open deep storage, advanced triggering, decoding, waveform recording option
ie. Rigol has just given everybody the options for free. Anybody who installs this firmware will get them, even the oldest customers.
