Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0

Dear Tech Support Team:

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0.

I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child-processes that took up a lot of space and valuable resources.

In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activities.

Applications such as BachelorNights 10.3, Cricket 5.0, BeerWithBuddies 7.5, and Outings 3.6 no longer runs, crashing the system whenever selected. I can’t seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications.

I’m thinking about going back to Girlfriend 5.0 , but the ‘uninstall’ doesn’t work on Wife 1.0.

Please help!

Thanks,
“A Troubled User”

Dear Troubled User:

This is a very common problem that people complain about.

Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0, thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program.

Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run EVERYTHING!!!

It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend 5.0.

It is impossible to uninstall, or purge the program files from the system once installed.

You cannot go back to Girlfriend 5.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed not to allow this. (Look in your Wife 1.0 Manual under Warnings-Alimony-Child Support) .

I recommend that you keep Wife1.0 and work on improving the environment.

I suggest installing the background application “Yes Dear” to alleviate software augmentation.

The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE because ultimately you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the system will return to normal anyway.

Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs, such as Clean 2.5, Sweep 3.0, Cook 1.5 and DoLaundry 4.2. However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to launch the program NagNag 9.5. Once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software. I recommend Sarees 2.1 and Jewellery 5.0

Hasn't the responder ever heard of Partition Magic? Create a second partition, install NewGirlfriend 1.0 on the new one. With different file systems, neither drive can see the other. Keep the boot loader file on a third partition so neither W nor NGF can see it in action; file corruption is assured otherwise.

MUTE VOLUME ON BOTH.:)

:eek: I think I'm going to have to get in touch with MRS. Lgbpop....;) :D

( I think it's safe to say that if NGF 5.0 were discovered by W 1.0 one wouldn't have to worry about their HDD any more....;) )

Install and run "Divorce Lawyer 4.0". Problem solved.

I've always heard that Divorce Lawyer 4.0 is a very pricey program... ;)

T R O U B L E is right, no matter how you look at it :D

Precisely why I'm a man who's never made the same mistake once. It's also why I always create a restore point before installing ANY new software.

Dear P3-450,,
We recommend that you install WifeLite v.69. This will remove the annoying features of your new operating system. The system files will still be operative, however, be advised that you may find it not to be as user friendly; you'll have to push a few more buttons to execute desired programs,and the program is often unresponsive. Unfortunately, child processes cannot be deleted, and you will have to pay for the yearly updates in perpetuity.

p.s. P3-450, well done, that is very funny

I had similar trouble. I ran Husband 4.0 for about 5 years and had nothing but problems. So, I finally installed Divorce Lawyer 4.0. It was expensive but well worth it. I now find running boyfriend 5.0 and doing updates every so often is much easier on my system. It doesn't bog down, cease to function or worse yet crash, nearly as it once did.

:D

You have to be careful though, because like with Microsoft, sometimes Boyfriend 5.0 runs autoupdates and will morph into Husband 6.0, which is reportedly the buggiest version of all.

Have no fear ... I have a close eye on that. My firewall is set up to reject any auto-updates ... they must first receive approval before installation can get off the ground.

My brother is running Wife v3.0 for 13 months now with no instability that I"m aware of.

Wife v1.0 and 2.0 were both unstable within 12 months.

Yes Family Jewels 0.1.0 could be at risk of removal.
