Wouldn’t register. Crashed on Win 10 Pro. Stay away is my advice
I have downloaded the installer but when I run the notice appear Vopt.exe must be closed before continue. My laptop is X64 based and running Windows 10.
Unable to install on win 10
It gives an error vopt.exe should be closed before installing and shuts downI cannot install this software. The installer talk that Vopt.exe is still running.
I have the Windows 10 64bit (1st Anniversary Updated) and I’m getting the same error message as apparently everybody else. How can you close the program that you’re trying to install in order to install it??? Classic Catch22!!!
Yes, Schloss has the answer for registration. install the program, copy ALL of the license info on the page taken to by “Registration file for above” (in red) to the file vopt9reg.txt… make one if it doesn’t exist in the Vopt9 program file and when you restart VOPT, it will say that it is Registered, compliments of the author. I was also confused when the instructions said to double click on the file, vopt9reg.txt and then click Register… I had no file named vopt9reg.txt
You need to save in Notepad not as a .txt file but as Vopt9.reg and then it works fine as a Complimentary Copy

Value=1Since this is a bequest by the author of the program is there any time limit on the download or installation?
My favorite defrag program for many years :)
It has that really cool hover mouse function that shows you what the file is behind the “map”
Thanks for making this version available for free .
Works on win7 ok.[@Al] yeh ,bit of a cock-up in the instructions.
” create a new file called Vopt9reg. ”

CORRECTED DIRECTION TO INSTALL:
DOWNLOAD DIRECTLY FROM: http://goldenbow.com/nudownload.htm
The download link for Vopt is provided to you above. Download and install Vopt. After install, do not run Vopt yet-ALSO FOR ERRORS AS ABOVE ON INSTALL, JUST LOG OUT & IN AGAIN OR RESTART IN ORDER TO CLOSE ANY PREVIOUS INSTALL. First, open Notepad(.TXT) and create a new file called Vopt9reg.txt
In that file, copy and paste in the following:

Save the file. Next, copy and paste the file Vopt9reg.txt into Vopt’s Program Files folder in your C: drive:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Golden Bow\Vopt 9

Sad to learn that VOPT.com is shutting down but Barry’s legacy will live on. So everytime you open VOPT think of Barry and appreciate what his gift to us means.
I just got an email from Elizabeth at VOPT.com with the following instructions for Registering:

If this doesn’t register Vopt9 in your name, try this:

Open the registration file by double-clicking on the filename “Vopt9reg.txt.”
A new window will open. The blue top line of the window will say Vopt9reg.txt – Notepad.
Open the Vopt9 program and click on Help on the light-blue second line from the top. On the menu which will appear, click on About Vopt. Then click the box which says “Register.”
A message will instruct you to complete registration by closing the Vopt9 program and then reopening it. When you reopen Vopt9 your information will appear on the screen.
[@mardel] I had the same problem with 64 bit Windows 10. The new “Downloader” program is a problem. I tried another program today, “Photo Pos Pro”. It installs but when one tries to open a photo is crashes.
