I to got an e-mail and it looked funny but I tried the link and it worked. I have always been able to down load it around 3 1/2 minutes and it was the same for this version. When I tried to install and transmitting data to MTU, my computer locked up . I restarted the computer and tried several more times with the same result. I then tried to contact MTU and it was 4:10 pm central time and there was nobody home. I was unable to get my older version of Hoster to work because the install had already started. Tried to reinstall older version and same thing happened when it was trying to tranmit back to MTU. I did a computer restore so I can get the show done this weekend but the program would not let me load any more songs. My data base for the disk brands and disk ID was not working. I did try the free data base on one disk and it came back with some info and when I tried to select all to load I kept getting a error where Hoster needed to shut down. A couple things I would like to see: Live help for the rest of the country especially on the weekends when most of us have shows and instant online help so that troubles can be addressed. IE find out if it is our problem or MTU's problem.

No where in the above does it state that you tried to load Hoster OFFLINE with a PREVIOUS Data Stick Registration/Install.

I do load the file into a data stick but I have not renamed the file or folder. I also see that during a upgrade internet conection is not needed. I have tried both ways on this new version and neither one was successful.
You say you do "load the file into a data stick." What file?

Does that mean that you had gone through the OFFLINE REGISTRATION PROCESS with your data stick for previous versions?

It still not clear if you went through an OFFLINE Registration Process, for a PREVIOUS VERSION and Hoster failed to Install/work properly.

Because, if you had done this with version 3.312 or any Prior Version, you wouldn't have needed to RESTORE your computer.

While OFFLINE, and, with the DATA STICK in a USB Port, you would, simply, doubleclick the v3.312 or any Prior Version Hoster.exe file, to start the installation process, and follow the process to complete the install.

Obviously, if you are having problems with ONLINE REGISTRATION of the CURRENT VERSION 3.313, you wouldn't be able to COMPLETE and install, FLOPPY/Data Stick OFFLINE or ONLINE.

But your 1st POST talked about problems with installing a P R E V I O U S Version.

My comments were, to generally, give info on how to correct to a PREVIOUS VERSION WITHOUT HAVING TO BE ONLINE. It may be too late for you, as it doesn't appear, from the reading, that you have a PREVIOUS VERSION OFFLINE REGISTRATION/INSTALL Method available.

It is, also, clear from the reading that SYSTEM RESTORE is not always the answer.

Forum members should take the advice that an OFFLINE REGISTRATION method is imperative. Hoster allows it...use it.
