Hello,
The application is portable. Just run the executable from where you downloaded.
Make sure that your Antivirus & Firewall is NOT blocking the application or the Activate.exe file.
To activate the license you need to allow internet connection.
If “Runtime error” occur, use these steps:
1. Right-click on the “Software_name.exe” file and select “Properties”.
2. Select “Compatibility” tab, and MAKE SURE you select: “Run this program as an administrator” check-box.
NOTE: in some systems (especially 64 bit systems) is also required to select: “Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP” check-box.
3. Click “Apply” button.
4. Click “OK”If the program stil not run correctly, please go in the “Security” tab
and make sure the software has Full control permissions.Even if the app window is bigger than your screen, you can click and drag the window where you want.
The application works on ALL Windows versions from Windows 2000 to Windows 10.It doesn’t install as such, it’s an executable (.exe) program file.
Hello.
The activatiom program included doesn´t working. It is program called “Activate.exe”. After clicking button “Activate Giveaway licence” it shows error stating: “This version of program is not compatible with version of your Windows. Check in system informations, whether you need 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) version of this program and then contact its publisher.”. I am using windows 7 32-bit. Are there any limitations regarding Windows versions, or is this programming error?I believe the reason why there is trouble with this giveaway today is because the software requirement listed on the owners website is as follows: Requirements:Windows 2000, Windows XP
Preferably minimum 1024×768 display resolution.
True Color (32bit) display
I saw that and decided not to even attempt today’s giveaway as I am running Windows 10Pro 64 bit.Same here. Totally useless. Uninstalled with Revo. [ @frank]
Ditto on ALL the above. This program will run in Windows 7: Windows XP SP2 Compaibility Mode but the Activate.exe will NOT so runs in “DEMO” mode only.
Vendor site states last update Nov 25, 2018 but obviously did not update to “DATE”. Total waste of time.Basically had all the same issues as everyone else. Resolved some with compatibility mode. But the activation still will not worked. Is now last day of giveaway and still no fix. Waste of time. Makes company look bad. Sure as hell would not take a chance on spending money with this publisher with all the bugs as pointed out in all the other posters comments. I highly doubt all of us are just too dumb to get this thing to work.
Can’t install. I got error message:
Runtime error 217 at 02C30331
Norman Vingoe and all users, who have problems with “installation” of this program:
This program is type of program, that we, IT technicians, are calling ´portable´. This name is for programs, which do not have installer, therefore do not create any desktop icons, any start menu entries and any mention in App Manager (Add/Remove Programs). You have to run this type of program always by clicking the downloaded .exe file.The main point of this type of program is posibility to put it on the usb stick and run it anywhere on any computer always with your prefered settings.
But this program is storing your settings (and activation info) in system registry, what means it is not portable at all, because if you move it to and run in another computer, it will run as unactivated demo version, and you have to run activation again on that computer.
So this program is simmply some kind of hybrid, done this way because its developer is probably too lazy to make installer for it.
[@Johnny] I think the main problem is, that the program is clearly pretty obsolete (but not by date of last update). It doesn´t look good and also lacks some very important functionalities (for example there is no way to reset changes you made in program – i.e. in the begining the days pattern have transparent background, but after you choose some color, there is no way back to transparency, other example is not functioning print preview, etc.).
And the Activate.exe program looks like it works only at 64-bit machines.
For me this is simple the worst program I have ever seen on this web.
