  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

thanks, i have opened a support ticket, i will try to update with the solution once i get it.
 
well things are solved!
what happened is that i was using trial key after the fresh install, and then when i bought the key from plesk and updated it there were still some trial keys in the "additional keys" section that were belong to the extensions that came with the trial. so in order to make things work i had to delete them.

about the cloning it appears that there is a full documentation from plesk:
windows: Preparing Plesk for Windows for Cloning
Linux: Preparing Plesk for Linux for Cloning
good luck
Noam
