   I have downloaded Network Inventory Advisor as part of the Give away of the day promotion and I see that on same day itself a new MINOR version has been released. When I install the one downloaded from the Give away site, it says that the name is stored in system and only code needs to be entered. When I run the software which was downloaded today itself, I find that the software reports a new version and when I download that, my full software turns into trial and now asks both Name and Registration Code.

   I am aware that technical support is not available with give away of the day promotion but I do expect them to give me a software which is current on the day of giving it away. This problem has occured as a new minor version was released on the give away day itself.

   How do I ensure that the software works fine.

   You can never install updates or new versions to software from GOTD, as this will always revert it to a trial (just as yours did). There is a note in every readme, "No free upgrades to future versions" - and that is what happens if you do try.

   As for your current problem, why don't you uninstall what you have and start over while there is still time.

   If the software has a selection to notify you of new versions, you might want to choose not to be notified - so you don't accidentally accept a new version by mistake.
