as noted in the comments, I had a problem, so I emailed glass@workerscollection.com with the following:
Subject: upgrade from glass pro 1.5 to 1.7 via gaotd won't start.
I had magnifying glass pro 1.5 giveawayoftheday working fine on win2ksp4,
and started to update it. I ran activate.exe, seemed to update the key
value, but when I ran setup it strongly suggested removing any earlier
version.so I did. stopped the installer, uninstalled version 1.5, ran activate.exe
again, then ran setup.the application will not start (doesn't show in task manager, so it's not
just hanging) and the HKLM\SOFTWARE\MagnifyingGlass12WorkColl\ branch is
missing. I ran activate again, same result. I'm disabled and used 1.5 a
lot, so do you have ant suggestions for getting 1.7 running or at least
getting 1.5 back?computer is a gateway solo 2550 13.5" 1024x768 variant, pentium III-450
with 192mb ram & 10 gigs of hdd, quad usb 2.0 cardbus-32 in slot1, and a
usb nic. there's a usb 2.0 40 gig external drine, but I installed it on
the internal drive c:as far as I know all runtimes are up to date.
and what I got back was:
