Hi Martin,

I had trouble with the free version when I tried to install it over an 
existing shareware version.  It kept asking for registration, etc.

As I recall, I had to do a complete uninstall, and then removed all traces 
of the previous version (delete the folder manually).

Then, installation of the full install from here 
http://www.qrosoft.co.uk/tpv20/tpv24f02.zip went just fine.  I no longer 
get the box about registering.

Maybe that is worth a try.

Good luck,

Mark
