[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  has provided a link to it. |

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. |

Still works here. The author gave the program out as FreeWare not TimeBomb Ware for Personal use. I hate that crap.
I agree, Doc. Thanks for Date Cracker 2000. JV16 PT v1.3.0.196 up and running again. |

Do you still have the 195 install file? We can get it uploaded to the BBR ftp site if you do. |
|
| |
I was trying to find that out myself (those bloody installers have no version numbers), and unfortunately I don't - I've just the 196 installer, which is of course useless. Oh great.
I wonder if it's just the main exe that was changed with version 196. If it is, one could just install .196 and replace the exe with 195, I'd think. |

NAV didn't say a word. I ran SpywareBlaster and Spybot S&D after the install too. |
|

to Tuulilapsi
Well.....I d/l it...and so far.....ran the setup.exe through File Snoop...then FileAlyzer..nothing seemingly untoward.....and EZTrust AV gave it thumbs up. |
|

Well then, it looks like we were lucky. |
