Official StarTools support forum

I have downloaded my license into the unzipped folder with all the other stuff--"windows 64" etc but when I open windows 64 it still,puts me in demo mode. ???? John Pratt

I was having all sorts of problems and venting on you innocent campers when I finally went back to the advertisement and saw that 6gb was required for processing. Subsequent posts gave the tongue in cheek that this was kind of pushing it . I had 8 gb and thought I was fine and couldn't figure out wh...

I'm back with my same problem. I have a Toshiba Satellite with oodles of memory (windows8). I just had a computer specialist look at it and remove anything that was running in the background . We're down to about 10% CPU usage with StarTools running. Everything else loads quickly and runs nicely. No...

I'll really go back and try look for them soon. When I stumbled on your real site it was quite different from the one that I have been downloading. Thnaks for the license.

Sorry about the rant. I haven't given my computer specs because the program has always worked and I have a very new powerfull laptop that is NOT the problem. I've just discovered another site for you on Mozilla and sent you a question about how to regain my purchased copy. The demo mode worked great...

This is completely discouraging. THE PROGRAM KEPT LOCKING UP,ON ME WITH A VERY POWERFUL,FOUR PROCESSOR COMPUTER AND FINNALY I WAS ABLE TO COMLETELY DUMP FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND RWLOAD. SO NOW IT WORKED UNTIL I GOT TO SAVE- THEN Of course I find that I'm in demo mode and all my work to,produce maybe ...

My fourth time of completely dumping and reloading did the trick. Working in a timely manner now. Why?? BTW my computer is a powerful dude!

Pretty discouraged. I've even dumped and reloaded StarTools to no avail--/ very, very slow to the point of useless .
Not a comtputer problem tha I can see--64 bit win 8 , Three progeserors

Additional info. As I sit here it has locked and even locked my curser arrow as well so I can't even shut it down without forced shutdown of my computer

This has happened to me a while back and I can't figure out how to solve it again--VERY slow to load or do any task and likely to just lockup on crop. If it doesn't lock on crop it can take 10 min to keep,it. About unworkable.
Version stable 1.3 on wimdows 8 -64 bit with three processors
