Microstudio has to be removed an reinstalled. That is why it requires the new registration number. if you just upgraded, something is wrong!!!!

Not sure but new registration number may have been just for us to test the registration changes. However, I do believe it will require a remove and re-install to get those drive settings corrected. This needs to be noted (large type) on the News and Product pages, so everyone does it.

I didn't upgrade.

I'm using the demo, which installs without affecting the existing program.

Sorry George,
I didnt read your post that said that. I assumed you had got the full version.

My Bad, Nevermind................

Nothing to apologize for. Not your fault.

Take care,

ddouglas,

Apparently I misunderstood your question about unistalling. Yes. I always unistall the old version (of Hoster or Microstudio) before installing the new.

When I asked how, I thought you were referring to the old version of firmware. I thought maybe I was supposed to unistall 1.09 before upgrading to 1.10. However, I will try removing and installing the program again if you think it might help.

Thanks,
Kelly

I did read your post before Amin deleted it and I thought it was a post with a valid problem.(Drives won't burn.) However, when you start saying some of the negative things you said in that post about being a former beta tester and how you would have been fighting over some of the language used in the pop up boxes for drives etc. I felt that was very negative and had no place in the forum. It is apparent to me that you are bitter about not being a beta tester any more but you should keep that to yourself. It has no business in a help forum.

When we change the first version number (2.x to 3.x) it is a new major release. In this case, we only used the name Microstudio to retain continuity. The actual product has almost none of the Microstudio 2.x code; it was rewritten from ground up after 10 years of evolution.

During Beta Testing, at Beta 15 we shifted to the new Registration Code, but it was the 3.0 that really requires installing from scratch. Everyone must remove then install to use 3.0.

The Demo has no bearing on anything in this post. It does not use the Registration Security at all, so it does not require removing the prior version.
