   Hello, I downloaded some hours ago Sticky Password 6.0, today's giveaway.

   I downloaded and installed the application, and GOTD mini application activated the software, though I DID NOT insert the licence key in Sticky Password to actually change from trial mode to registered mode.

   The problem is that, in the meanwhile, I read on GOTD website that the licence included a portable version, but the program installed itself on my PC, so I thought that, during the installation process, I could have missed an option to choose one of the two versions (I'd have preferred the portable version).

   So I uninstalled and re-installed the application for a check. I finally understood that I didn't make mistakes: the "portable version" is not selectable during the installation, but rather in the program itself.

   But the point is that, after the second installation, GOTD software connected again and did the activation, but the licence code given to me was now "invalid" according to Sticky Password (when I pasted it in its dedicated dialogue box).

   So my software will stay in the trial mode if I can't find a way to give it a valid code.

   (I don't know if the first code was equal to the second one. I only now that this last one is not accepted. Moreover, I'm sure that I didn't make Copy/Paste mistakes. It's not a problem of partial code selection or something like that.)

   Could you please help me? I only have 16 hours left.

   Thank you very much!
   John

   Not sure what's wrong John. Should just be able to go to the site listed in the readme.txt file - http://www.stickypassword.com/coupon - fill in your name, e-mail address, & plug in the coupon code from the readme file -- after filling out the CAPTCHA box & submitting your info, you get a 2nd chance to verify everything before clicking on the submit button. A minute or so later you should receive the e-mail with your key.

   Assuming you did all that, if you tried using the same key for two activations the Sticky Password server might have refused it the 2nd time -- you might have to request another key, & might have to use another e-mail address. If you did get another key & it didn't work, before a 3rd attempt you *might* make sure the Sticky Password folder is deleted in My Documents after an uninstall, & you *might* search for Lamantine in Regedit, deleting the Sticky Password key, but no idea if that will cure anything or not.

   In the comments on the download page the developer has been quite forthcoming, saying that if you have problems, e-mail him. Could give that a try. He also said that you can use the regular trial version rather than the GOTD download if you like.

   Ohh, thank you so much Mikiem2. I didn't open the readme.txt file for a matter of habit. I simply copied the code written in the WOFT window and didn't know about the SP webpage at all.

   The new - full - code is longer than the previous one, and it works :-)))

   Thank you again, all my gratitude to you.
   Have a nice day.
