   When I download, I just get the demo. How do I register/activate the game?

   Thanks.

   If you downloaded on time (before the deadline), AND installed it, AND went back to the original folder and doubleclicked on the activate.exe file, then you should have gotten a quick message box that said Activate Successful. That's it!

   Ah hah, but that's the problem! Where is the activate.exe file? Could you help step-by-step?

   Thanks.

   The Active.exe file comes with the zip file download.

   Run it, and it should automaticly activate.
   The following should be in the file:

   readme.txt
   setup.exe
   activate.exe

   If you don't see it, download it again and make sure it is from giveawayoftheday.com download page.

   I have used process above, without difficulty. - Until today's 3d Christmas screen saver. The program doesnot appear to recongize the "activation" after "activate.exe." has run & confirmed. The software still is stating this is a demo, not activated and to purchase the full program.
   Thanks.

   Close the software and run the activate.exe when the screensaver is closed. That should help.

   No, every activate is unique, i.e. for one software product only

   "admin" Thanks for your response. Prior to my post, I had already downloaded & repeated process "setup.exe & activate.exe" ... Repeated process a third time with same results. - Thank you for trying.

    If I forget to activate yesterday's program/game and activated them today (using the orginal activate.exe for the program) will I get into trouble with giveawayoftheday.com?

    Yes is a good Idea untill you have to reinstall the program because its taking up hard drive space that evenly we will run into sooner or leter. I am puting them on cd the ones that I do not need at the moment.
