The Registration Site is ran by a third party and not collocated with the Author's website! WinRamTurbo is encapsulated inside a registration key-lock system provided at the Registration Site. All Registration keys are purchased and controlled solely by a third party Registration Site. The Author does not issue or replace keys. This is a matter solely for the Registration Site. You will receive email from them when you purchase a key, please make a copy of that contact info! The Registration Site will be your initial contact with WinRamTurbo. Keys will work one-time for the version that was original downloaded and WILL NOT work for any other versions! FREE Future UpGrades will come from the Author! Once you have purchased a key from the Registration Site, then ALL contact ceases from them and the Author of WinRamTurbo takes over the Support of ALL FREE UpGrades to you. You will be managed under the FREE UpGrade Program System each time a new UpGrade is released. You will be given special instructions on obtaining the NEW FREE UpGrades from the Author and NOT from the Registration Site! It is very important that you understand these procedures that will help reduce the amount of confusion and email received from the customer. We are here to Support this product using the above guidelines! Are you a Windows user? If so, WinRamTurbo is THE way to handle "Out of Memory" errors. ********************************************************************* ALL versions ********************************************************************* *** Installation *** PRO & LITE Downloads from Official Registration Site Only (in EXE format) ========================================================================= NOTE - The PRO requires the installation of the Microsoft Visual Basic RunTimes which are available from our website on the "Download" page.
