TMPG ver 2.58 30 day expired and haven't used it yet

[Anthony]

I just downloaded TMPG ver 2.58 three days ago because I was thinking of trying it rather than using ReMPEG. I unzipped it and opened it to take a quick look at it and then this weekend, I was gonna put it to the test. Since then my wife has changed the date on our computer with XP to see what day a particular date would fall on and then changed it back. I do not believe TMPG liked that because now it tells me that my 30 day trial has expired.

I have done extensive searches on this forum to find a "fix" for this and have tried johnbmx4christ's solution of the regedit notepad, the regcleaner, a couple of the 2.53 & 2.54 cracks, and the datechecker software, all with no success.

I know that some of you are thinking, "hhmmm, how about...purchasing it...what a thought! "...yes, I have thought of that but I thought the whole idea of this 30 day trial was to test it to see if you like it and if you do, then buy it. My problem is I haven't been able to try it to find out if I like it enough to buy it.

Any help would be appreciated?

Thanks,

Anthony

You could try one fo the following:

1) Uninstall TMPGEnc, shut down the machine, restart the machine, reinstall TMPGEnc

2) Get a new wife (just kidding) ;>}

Should I use a special program to un-install it because it doesn't install directly into windows. It just resides in wherever you unzip it and runs from there. That is why when you go to add/remove programs, it is not there.

Get rid of the wife?...well, if that's what it would take...then maybe...

Well that didn't work either. Any other suggestions?

try downloading the 30 day test version again.

Install the latest version of Tsunami (v.3.9.6). It contains a registry "hack" that will reset TMPGEnc's time trial period.
