Maybe uninstall, remove registry components and reinstall?

The only part that I am worried about are the singers.

I spent all day organizing singers songs at a club I karaoke at for the singers list and I don't want to loose them because I deleted all there songs in the open list.
Is that possible? This not a high priority for me just a small inconvenience.
Thanks Roy

You can create a backup of the Singers database, click the "Singers" button next to the search button. when that opens there are 2 buttons to choose from select "Singers" in that dialog is another button "Backup DB" press that.
Another little safety thing you can do is open Hoster/Tools/Hoster data folder look for "singers.mdb" and singers_backup.mdb the last one is the backup you just created, as an extra safety copy the singers.mdb to a completely different folder or a usb stick.

Regarding the manual when you click on the link "hosterman.htm" does that open the manuel for you if so is the title of it "Video Hoster^® 5.09.02 User Manual" or another version ?

It may be just ticking the box in the install process to remove all previous settings will work without un-installing first. I don't really know as I have never seen this problem before.
Did you try Renaming the manual file before installing as that should make it re-create a new one that might renew the link. Just name it "manual2" then it will still be there as a back up but be ignored on a re-install.
