Julia needs to get laid or something.

I got this from another file host website and ran it under Windows98 compatibility. I entered the reg code from a previous post on here. The prog is kind of gay compared to today’s standards, the ‘mark’ feature could have been useful even if newer file managers used it. The reg key allowed changing themes through one menu, but not through another. Whatever…

The latest version of this software (version 3.5 build 3600, which is 4 years old, and the same version which was reviewed here!) is definitely not freeware, it’s a 30 day trial, which I can confirm having just cancelled an installation for this reason.

Thanks to all their messing about, they successfully got a lot of free publicity from freeware review sites, and a lot of downloads from freeware download sites. It’s bad behaviour but it didn’t pay off. The Flexigensoft site now consists of a fake “automotive blog” full of non-content. Atrocious.

@ Datarat: I was able to run this on my 64bit Windows 7 machine a couple of months ago. However, there are better free file managers out there.

Installed ok, but won’t run on my 64-bit Vista machine.

@ WideScreenWiz: I just re-installed the software, imported the registry key that they provided on their webpage, and created and saved a playlist with no problems whatsoever.

It is obvious from what you describe that the issue is with the successfull registration of the software. Try saving the registry key (right click “save as” on the link) and then import that from the program.

No free lunch? I see more free software every day than I can possibly review in a lifetime.

I tried saving a playlist and a message popped up saying for that feature I had to purchase the software. When I clicked the How to Buy button, it took me to their website which said their software is free, and just install a registration key. When I did that, the same thing happened, with the same results sending me in circles 3 or 4 times before I uninstalled this garbage in disgust. There are no free lunches, folks.

No, why do you keep writing this, people? It is NOT $29.95. It is freeware. There is even a large explantion on the home page “Our products are now freeware.”

You can download the registration code from the home page or from the Tinypaste site above.

the home page is back up – the developer let their domain expire. accelman looks to be $29.95 now – perhaps the key was a limited time trial like they did on giveawayoftheday.com .

well, it was a good deal for free, but it is a bit quirky for $29.95.

The program home page seems to be seriously broken for a couple of days now. Anybody know what’s going on?

The developer’s site seems to be down. It will probably be back up soon.

The project home page link you provided goes to a 404 Not Found page. The domain account has been suspended.

Accelman is FREEWARE.

Enough already with people saying its shareware or trialware. I am using an unrestricted version that I downloaded off the developer’s site.

You have to download the REGISTRATION KEY FILE. This is provided on the download page for you.

The reason this exists is: the developer decided to make their shareware program freeware, so they released the registration key.

If you are unable to get the reg key or to make it work, copy and paste this key into the program (click on this link):
http://tinypaste.com/4a191

This key was provided on the developer’s website earlier. Note: copy and paste past
“key=”; do not include “key=” in the actual pasted key.

Note: as I write this the developer’s site seems to be down. It will probably be back up soon.

AccelMan is Trial Ware, evolution for 30 days. Well if we are talking about trial products, then try Directory Opus, it is the best amongst Explorer replacement solutions.

Yes but this is free where as Directory Opus is not.

Like Blogward i use Directory Opus, and using a windows machine without DOPus just feels sluggish and inefficient. I’ve been using it since the early 90s starting on the Amiga It’s the 1st program i’ll install anytime i reinstall windows along with IrfanView and Opera, they are the 3 programs i can’t do without.
