Good product. One downside, tho, to upgrading, is that it wiped out the icons I had moved to the “Users” tab. (Good thing they weren’t my only copy.) So watch out for that. (And ArticLine, maybe you folks could fix that?)

I loved this on XP when offered B4… very handy on Vista as well. Nice little utility that makes it easier to find a folder.

Great program, was using the older one with joy. Uninstalled the old and installed the new with no problems.

There is only one annoyance: you have to enter the code and reboot for every user on computer. My computer is also used by wife and child so i had to enter the code and reeboot three times. “Install for all users” feature would be nice.

I missed that on previus version and and had registered version on my profile and unregistered od the other two profiles.

Thank you for great giveaway!

First before all things Poster #2 you epically fail

next order of business this is a great program, especially for these who take lots of pictures, and have millions of files.

LOL.

I just checked the FolderMarker site and the Everyday Folder Icons are listed as “Additional Icons” for purchase for an additional $19.95 LOLL

So the registration works fine!

Hope that clears it up.

Cheers

I registered it and restarted windows after.
Started the program up afterwards and under the EVERYDAY tab it says that the Icon Set is the “DEMO VERSION.”
But when I check the ABOUT page it says I am registered to Giveawayoftheday….does this mean I am not registered?

To the people saying “It says demo even though the about says it’s registered to giveawayoftheday”: Folder Marker Pro is registered. The icons under Everyday are separate. If you click the link, it takes you here: http://www.foldermarker.com/ordernow.php?discount=EFILinkInProgram which gives you the option of buying an Extra Icons pack (at $19.99) for use in that tab.

You can see the extra icons are here: http://www.foldermarker.com/everyday-vista-folder-icons.php
It would have been nice if they were included but the program is still plenty useful on it’s own.

To those asking if you need to uninstall previous versions first, I installed this over top of 2.1 it and it updated perfectly.

Great little program. Small, simple to use and very handy.

Thank you, GOTD and ArcticLine for this unexpected surprise.

The one thing I wanted to find out was “Is there a difference between the 2.1 version we had before and this 3.0.1″?

It really looks like exactly the same software, but there is a substantial increase in the number of interesting icons. So I am glad I upgraded.

I also like the software. It does make what it does easy.

For those who wondered about the “Everyday” tab asking you to buy something … the “Everyday Icons” are a separate product, actually advertised today higher up this page. They are Vista icons, so I think they would look out of place on my XP screen. (Especially since, as others realized the other day, some of them are rather “different”. I might use a folder icon that has icons on it for Mommy/Daddy/Child. But where would I use a folder icon that has a bare woman’s torso on it? (See above.) Or the one with a tiger pelt rug on it?)

Okay. Thumbs up.
