Eileen Melamed, I am having the same issues .... hopefully they will fix for us.

krypteller, I think we all tried an retried and checked and rechecked an installed and reinstalled. Obviously there is a problem with the registration code/program!

By the way, it told me it had successfully installed, even without asking me for the authorization code. This led me to assume that I would need to give it the code at runtime.

By the other way, I had also disabled AVG and checked that Windows Defender was disabled.

The registration code is in the readme file in the downloaded zip from GoTD.

heimer, LEAWO_MUSIC_RCORDER_...
that's the registration code that was in the readme file

Trying 2 b Helpful,
Just a guess on my part, but IMO, the reason for the differences is Leawo support. On the Leawo page, the list is for people who are paying money for the software,, and for whom Leawo will provide support services.
On the GAotD page, the software is offered with no guarantees or support. So, I think what Leawo is saying is, "we [i]think[/i] it will run on XP but no guarantees or support for GAotD users", while on their webpage, "we guarantee and will support this software on Vista and above"

Peter Goosen, Also possibly if you have a firewall separate from your anti virus it could be blocking the install.

Peter Goosen, Its a shame that GOTD can't fix this problem which for me is about 2 out of 3 offers that interest me. I usually pass on them, which isn't good for GOTD or the Software Company, rather than disabling my anti virus. Knowing my luck it would be those minutes of no defence that would cost me a lot more than some free software.

"... you need to disable your anti virus then it works, i use Avast and it is a mission to disable each time."

"Its a shame that GOTD can't fix this problem... "

It's the companies making security software that decide whether to block the GOTD setup app, e.g. 2 of the top rated security suites at av-test[.]org are Kaspersky & Bitdefender -- Kaspersky is [in]famous for blocking GOTD, Bitdefender isn't.

Unfortunately it's a fact of life that software developers have to protect themselves -- it can be difficult to sell software & stay in biz if the same software's available on-line without paying them for it. The devs that provide software for GOTD offers can opt to use the GOTD app or not -- those that do use it are [IMHO Much] more likely to only offer those giveaways on GOTD... if GOTD didn't provide their software protection, you'd be less likely to see it given away.

Peter, At very least if they cannot deal with it they can at least TELL us to do this each time it is necessary, under `system requirements' or elsewhere. This would save them a lot of unpleasant comments that we read every time.

Dennis Fine, On this Win10-64 Pro the software install and works fine:

Dennis Fine,

When ever you run any new software that you download, you should ALWAYS put your computer into "virtual" mode. This allows the computer to run the new software without changing the computer permanently. Recently, GAOTD offered a program called "shadow defender", this is a virtual program that allows you to try anything on your computer, without fear of permanent damage. If there is a problem, you just exit without saving the changed made, and your computer goes back to where it was before you installed the new software. This is absolute a must have software. You can wait for another title or offering, but I suggest that if you did not get the program when it was offered, you pony up the cash and buy something else. There are other versions that I believe are free, one I remember is "deep freeze", something like that.

These software programs, if used correctly, can save your system from any virus attack as well. I have been using the "shadow defender" on a near daily basis, because of this feature. Even though I have a good AV program, I still prefer using this as an extra layer of protection. It has already saved me several times from trojans and other malware. It allows you to take risks that you might not otherwise take. These virtual programs are a MUST HAVE for any users of GAOTD. If the new program is working as advertised, you just save the changes and exit the protection/shadow mode. This also prevents you from having problems when you uninstall unwanted programs, that often leave a lot of messy files behind. With a virtual program, you no longer have ANY TRACE that the program was ever on your computer.

I hope this helps, and I am sure you can get plenty more advice by more experienced users of this site. This is what the site is all about, helping others and giving companies usable feedback about their products, so they can create better programs in the future.

Dennis Fine, As I recall, the last (first) time I installed this, at least a year ago from here, it caused a big problem with my sound card/settings. I think I did not notice it at first, and then, when I did notice, not being immediately after I installed the Leawo programme, I did not connect the dots....

So I'm leary about installing it again.... I will certainly either set a restore point before I install it, so I can go back and eliminate all it's effects, or use something like Deep Freeze (if it is free) or some other similar free programme. I really do NOT want to go through all the hassles of last time...

It was very time consuming to sort out -- and I still don't know why it effected my Lenovo T420 Win 10/64 bit machine so badly.... This is just a heads up, in case anyone else comes across a similar problem.

Anthony, Your comment is exceptional re: the use of virtual mode. However, a lot of GAOTD users are over- the- hill paranoid with regard to disabling an anti-virus long enough to install a GAOTD offering, especially since I have never heard of, nor have I seen any mention of any offering to contain a virus, and I have used GOTD virtually daily since the '90s. Before I ever used GAOTD I inquired on several relevent and astute forums about the possibility of getting a virus from a download here and was assured that it was safe, as I am assuring you from experience that chances of that happening are slim to none.
I know I will get a heap of newbie freakouts about my sanity on this, but I can assure you as well that I am above average safety conscious to the point of having enough patience to monitor virtually every function of my PC in real-time as I work, continuously scanning with several AVs, using virtual mode when I perceive risk, and
mainly keeping anything personal off the PC and/or encrypted. The point being I have never had any indication that GAOTD offerings are unsafe, including necessary links required to install them.
My main AV has a 10 minute disable feature, and I comfortably use that when a GAOTD offering requires it rather than waste a lot of time playing around with something I know beforehand I am trying but may not keep. OR, as Anthony says, if you are not secure about your safety methods, virtualize it.

beans,

I was not considering getting a virus from here, only that a program from here can make your machine unstable. That alone can cause permanent damage if the user is unable to recover back to windows. I would be shocked if every there was a virus in one of these programs. I use shadow defender now, on every program I install, that way I can test it for as long as I like, without committing to the program. Once I decide to keep it or dump it, it is simply a matter of telling "shadow defender" to save and exit, or dump the changes and revert back to the system before the install. It is so simple and quick, probably one of the best software programs I ever installed from this site. I have been a long time user of the site, but spent the last two years without a computer running, just used a phone. Now I am back on the site, and happy to be here.

Anyway, hope that clears things up. When I saw that they suffered a BSOD, this is the first thing I thought of.

I'm having the same problem

Dabluzman,

Hi
If i'm not mistaken, I have had such issues before. It has something to do with the GOTD "wrapper" used, which sometimes somehow requires temporarily disabling the antivrus just for installation.

xprt007, Hmm, that would be the first time I've ever needed to do so, and even thought I have other Leawo software I'm not sure that I ought/should

PeeTee,

I install software from GOTD quite often & have installed this particular program before. It's a while ago though & do not remember it required deactivating the antivirus then. Most of the time at GOTD deactivating the antivirus is NOT necessary, but in some cases now then, I noted one just gets the program getting activated but no installation takes place.
In such cases, and you will find in old posts here & there if you have time to check old Giveaways, you will find folks had a similar problem and in some cases, you will find GOTD explains it has something to do with THEIR "wrapper".
If I understand this well, the wrapper is not from the vendor like Leawo, but a modification by GOTD to offer it as a Giveaway, though I may be mistaken.

Actually after my last post, I tried to install the recorder & got same issue, which however went away when I temporarily disabled my antivirus.

Here are such results for "wrapper" in the GOTD forum: https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/466774#post-578987

You will find some refer to this issue and you might be able to get a response from one of the GOTD folks. In this => https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/466800#post-579109, the Forum Admininstrator "ChrisS" explains ...

...

PeeTee,
Correction: "wrapper" search results: https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/search.php?q=wrapper

PeeTee, Try to download and install the trial form the site.
If this one can be installed normal, then there is maybe a problem with Themida.
You can try to pause(disable) the anti-virus and also the firewall for a short time; just enough to start the setup and get the first screen of the setup:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ikj0fvtdyywdi6y/Setup.png
And after the installation restart the anti-virus as soon as possible.
Or restart Windows to be sure.

PeeTee,

When you run the GOTD setup file, the giveaway's setup files are extracted & run. Security software can sometimes prevent those files from being extracted & run. Some brands, like the now controversial Kaspersky, have always blocked it. Other brands may change their policies, deciding to block it where they once left it alone -- sometimes that change is temporary, e.g. their automated systems start blocking it until their engineers intervene.

When security software blocks the GOTD app from working properly, turning off active scanning normally allows the GOTD setup app to run. Some security software doesn't really let you turn off that scanning, regardless what the GUI says, so one common solution is to restart [reboot] the system or device into Windows Safe Mode, where the security software normally doesn't start & run.
