CF 1.4 + 1.5 License Problem

**SnyperBob** · 11-04-2005, 01:01 AM

OK, I'm getting pretty ****ed at this point cause I can't get either version to work, so I figured I'd post for some help.

I originally had Centrafuse 1.4 installed and it worked great with my serial code, no problems.

I wanted to try out the new Centrafuse and heard that you need to uninstall all previous versions. I uninstalled CF 1.4, deleted any remaining folders off my C drive, then installed CF 1.5

Using the new Serial Key from CF's website for 1.5, I was able to install and unlock the new version. The new version worked (bugs and all) without problems.

Well, I was getting a little fed up with all the bugs in the new version and figured I would go back to 1.4 and use that. So, I tried reversing the process. I uninstalled CF 1.5, deleted the remaining folders off my hard drive that it left, and reinstalled 1.4

Once I run CF 1.4 now, it says that the trial has expired. I never get the screen saying that there's the trial period. So on the screen below I entered my original 1.4 Serial Key and nothing happens. It goes back to the same screen as below, just saying that the trial has expired.

Screenshot:

To fix this issue, I tried uninstalling CF 1.4, removed any folders, then proceeded to try to delete any related registry entries. I'm not too familiar with deleting reg keys, but I went into regedit and did a find for all entries with the name "centrafuse". After deleting everything found, I searched again for anything named "flux".

I reinstalled 1.4, and the same thing happens. I'm so frustrated and have spent a couple hours messing around with this, that I apologize if there's already a posted solution to something like this.

Any suggestions. Is there a specific reg key I'm missing that housing the license info or something?

OK, that worked great - thanks!

I'll see if I have any problems going back to 1.5 a little later on. I noticed when I tried to reinstall 1.5, it was doing that thing where the loading screen would come up, then the whole thing would disappear.

Based on posts in the 1.5 Bugs thread, ppl mentioned this was also license related. I'll test going back to 1.5 and see if theres any problems.

Thanks for the lic file david.

no problem... I have one for 1.5 also... they will be added as links to the "My Accounts" page once I get a chance to update...

also all future versions will make to to properly uninstall everything and remove the centrafuse directory so all these license update issues should be solved...
