Running Afterburner 1.5.0 Beta 5. Had to reboot my machine and I got the message below. I restored my drive from my morning disk image when it was working and even that didn't stop the error. Could AB really be expired? I don't see a newer version Thanks.
Funny you should mention it just now. Mine became corrupt a half hour ago. Tried reinstall reboots removed the Kom bench thingy ....still no go:/
One week is quite a stretch from a "long time". Maybe we could build in a little development grace period? Say... two weeks?
Yes, definitively. And reading the threads like that I'm starting to think more and more that giving the betas to everyone and to people unable to read and think is actually a bad idea.
oh thank god for this thread I reinstalled about 4 times before looking online. wonder why they gave a time limit. it was working like a charm. but no swet just go back to evga presicion.
They gave it a time limit because it is BETA version intended for SHORT previewing and TESTING ONLY. They did it to leave lamers behind and to prevent anyone from keeping BETA version installed for long period of time. Like it or dislike it, beta versions will always have 1 week trial period. Don't like the fact - just stay away of public new versions beta testing process, let more experienced users to test it and stay on full releases ONLY. Simple as ABC.
I think a limited number of beta testers can be selected but then who would do the selection and how? A simple answer is Unwinder does the selection and at his own will but then that may sound like too much effort on its own... Idk but I'm starting to think more and more that it's a pain to be a software developer. Thank you Unwinder for your efforts and your excellent products!
