I represent PCWinSoft. The reverts of trial are due to a mechanism to avoid piracy. It was incorrectly measured and turned into trial for wrong cases like yourselves. The idea of the mechanism is to avoid that the license gets distributed for free. PCWinSoft is indeed concerned with staying true to GOTD users and therefore I as the representative am making arrangements with GOTD team to provide permanent keys to GOTD users. I will possibly post here soon about the solution.

Anyway,thanks to the impeccable system repair options of 7 ,I was able to revive my older version of AVCapture. Using Revo Uninstaller I was amazed by the crap left behind after running its uninstaller though.

Let me say that I do not use reg cleaners. Never ever. Activation(s) for all the apps that expired were done correctly and the registry keys were/are still present in Windows registry. So logical conclusion is that company(s) gives GOTD and us software that is time limited. Shame on them. I guess they think nobody will check time period and GOTD users will be pleasantly suppressed when after certain time apps expire. I’m sorry for such a long post but these problems are troubling me for some time and I needed to get it out of my system. vipum Buzz on "PCWinSoft Systems - 1AVCapture Registration Bug FIXED !!!" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10061#post-92455 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 13:30:42 +0000 Buzz 92455@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ vipum is right. Set your pc clock to august 2, 2011 as I did and start the app, it now says your trial period has expired! A true scam program. graylox on "PCWinSoft Systems - 1AVCapture Registration Bug FIXED !!!" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10061#post-92452 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 11:08:39 +0000 graylox 92452@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Hi,vipum, where did you find that this giveaway "will expire on 1st of August, 2011" ? Please give some evidence. I haven't had this problem in the past with PCWinSoft Systems ‘s programs. It could be that your installation didn't activate correctly or that the reg-key was stuffed by e.g. a reg-cleaner. graylox vipum on "PCWinSoft Systems - 1AVCapture Registration Bug FIXED !!!" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10061#post-92449 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 10:12:09 +0000 vipum 92449@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ 1AVCapture - today's (29.06.11) gotd will expire on 1st of August, 2011 when you will be forced to buy the software in order to continue to use it. I think GOTD team should response to this immediately, after all this kind of behavior is against sites policy. I must also add that PCWinSoft Systems ‘s programs expired in such a way in the past too. So if you do not want to be left with just a trial after 31.07.11 than DO NOT DOWNLOAD today’s GOTD app. PegM4 on "Wondershare DVD Slideshow Builder Standard - My Document" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/9813#post-91341 Sat, 28 May 2011 14:03:51 +0000 PegM4 91341@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Wondershare DVD Slideshow Builder Standard seemed to uninstall my older version then install without a problem, but when I try to open it, I get "Failed to locate "My Document".

The Australian inventor whose company, Uniloc, was awarded in April 2009 $US388 million ($NZ512 million) in a patent infringement case against Microsoft, only to have the jury decision overturned by a judge, has this week had success in having the ruling against Microsoft reinstated by an appeals court. The case, which alleges Microsoft earned billions of dollars by using Richardson's anti-piracy technology in its Windows XP and Office programs, has been going through the courts since 2003 and Uniloc has been appealing the judge's decision, alleging bias. But, just this week, Richardson was informed of the outcome of the appeal, which reinstated Microsoft's guilty verdict. hotdoge3 on "Microsoft quietly shuts down Office Genuine Advantage program" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/9044#post-86745 Tue, 21 Dec 2010 07:36:14 +0000 hotdoge3 86745@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <a href="http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/microsoft-quietly-shuts-down-office-genuine-advantage-program/2798" rel="nofollow">http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/microsoft-quietly-shuts-down-office-genuine-advantage-program/2798</a> Microsoft quietly shuts down Office Genuine Advantage program.http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917999 BuBBy on "How to open a MSI file" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1718#post-63065 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 10:56:36 +0000 BuBBy 63065@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ LOL @ A year later - glad it helped.

I did not get a message that said to reboot my computer. From this I assume that the driver was not installed. In the \Program Files\StarBurn\Wizards\Logs directory there is a file called "Starburn.log". It is rather large (51 KB), 29-pages in Microsoft Word 2000, so I will not post it at this time. I searched the log, in Notepad" and "Word" for "driver", "*.drv", "starport.drv", "starportLite" - None of these were found. Of course I don't know the name of the driver yet so I just guessed at its name. It is going to take a while for me to find out the name of the driver and I will only be able to find out its name if it is installed on my computer. Interestingly I found this entry in the "Starburn.log". CStarBurn_ScsiDeviceCdvdRomWriter::CStarBurn_ScsiDeviceCdvdRomWriter_SharedConstructor(): WARNING! Device does not support recording I guess the offer will be gone fron GOTD before I can get much further. Please give me the specific names that you found - such as the name of the driver and the name of the text file that says that the driver has been installed. Thanks
