Regedit

How does one take Trailware out of their registry?

Do you mean, delete the registry entry that's responsible for determining if you've used a "shareware" product for longer than the allowed time? If that's what you mean, than I only have one answer: Don't ask. Asking such questions violates our Acceptable Use Policy

If you meant something else, please elaborate on your question and I'm sure someone here will be able to lend you a hand.

Shareware, Freeware, Spyware, Trailware, Your OWN purchased WARE....

Any of the above, by unistalling them some files are still left behind. My question was not to abuse software or get away with use trialware/shareware/etc for free.

I installed a program from the web....several actually.

I have two problems from installing these programs (this is happening after i unistalled them)

1.) I keep getting this damn request to buy their software... i don't want it, i tried sending them an e-mail asking if their's a way to delete...no response yet.

2.) After that pop-up comes up asking me if i want to buy it...i close it, my PC locks up.... every damn time. Granted this could be a coincidence.....but over 12 times???? i don't think so.

I don't want to try to get some cheap software free.... i just want it off. Hell, to buy the software, it's only $10!!!!! CHANGE!!!

i understand your concern and admire it, i'm just getting upset at whomever programmed this software to do this. I'm trying to get things off my pc so i can reformat, but i would like to avoid that, if possible.

thanks for any and all help
