[Help] jv16 won't run!

Okay, I'm still using jv16 powertools 1.3 (the last free one), and now today it seems that it doesn't want to run. I just keep getting an error saying that "this appears to be old. please go to our site to download a newer one."

Do I have to pay to keep using this software now?

Edit: Mine just started doing it, too.
Time to uninstall and throw away.
Knew I had RegSeeker waiting in the wings for a reason.

Happy New Year,
Gadgets

Well, I just tried mine, and got the same message.

Must have had a built-in timer, to go off New Year's Day.

Guess I'll use Regseeker now.

Oh well - Error Message
Same error for me as well...

See attachment...

Could be an "anti-piracy" mechanism built-in, even with the last free version. Oh well, it was a decent proggie, guess I, too, will rely on RegSeeker.

Same here. I guess all my backups are toast. Would have been nice to have a warning about this!

If this ploy is supposed to make me shell out $29.95 for JV's latest bug-ridden version, then somebody must be dreaming. Plenty of freeware registry cleaners up for grabs; a number of them better than JV16 PT.

Guess it's time to hit the search button and start re-reading all those threads that start, "Hey, what's the best registry cleaner..."

Regcleaner 4.3 Build 780 is still available (this was the last release prior to switching to the Powertools) and it doesn't have this popup. coreys27 See Profile has provided a link to it.

Re: [Help] jv16 won't run!

Odd as it is, my jv16 PT version 1.3 does run properly - and no, my system clock isn't behind. *confuzzlement*

Oh, and no DateCracking here either.

Where are you running the install from?

Try running the install from the desktop.

I don't know why, but it just does. This is no special or modified version, and my system clock says 1.1.2004. Go figure...

What sub-version of 1.3 do you have? I seem to recall one final "patch" just before he started charging for the new version.

The jv16 PowerTools.exe says 1.3.0.195 - which I believe is the version prior to the last free version of the program.

He must have added the time bomb to 196.
