How To Register Jewels Properly

Please select the following link that you wish to read more information about:

1) How do I register Jewels?

You register Jewels by purchasing a license and entering your product registration code into the program to activate the full version of the software.  You do not need to uninstall the demo or install any new software to get the full version-- once you properly register the game, the demo version will be automatically converted into the fully licensed, non-limited version.

There is a registration application included in the installation of the program.  If you have selected the default directory during installation, the game and its files are found in the \Program Files\Games\Jewels directory.  The registration program is included in the directory and is called REGISTER.EXE

There is no shortcut icon in the Start Menu associated with the register application like there is for the game.

2) I've registered, so why does it still say it's a demo version or it has expired?

You must type in your names and product code EXACTLY as it appears in the email receipt.  The biggest problem that we've seen is that users have the "auto complete" feature turned on for the on-screen virtual keyboard on the PocketPC.  There is an option (a default) that tells the keyboard to add a space after the completed word.  This space will mess up the registration process. 

If you are sure that you have not misspelled (or transposed some letters) in any of the text field entry boxes, please check for an offending space before or after your text.

3)  I've purchased the game, where do I download the full version?

You already have it!  The demo version is also the full product version.  The key to unlocking the full version is to properly enter your product registration code after purchasing the game.  You do not need to re-install the application in order to unlock the demo version.  Once the product is registered, it will not expire.

4)  I installed an update to Jewels, but it now says it's a demo version.  What gives?

Unfortunately, you will need to re-register the program using the product registration code that was given to you at the time of purchase.   A  "demo" license is included in the distribution package, and is installed during the installation procedure.  If it overwrites your existing license file, you will need to re-register.

5) How do I view my license information?

Run the REGISTER.EXE application or view the SERIAL.TXT file using PocketWord.  These files are located in the installation directory of the application.

6) Why does the license look outdated or for an older version?

For example, if you have installed version 1.01 of the application, your license file may reflect that the product version is 1.0

This is normal and has been designed to keep you from having to generate a new code for every small patch update.  The 1.0 license is therefore good for all 1.0X updates.  Note that if there is a 2.0 version that has been installed, and your license file indicates 1.0, it will definitely need to be updated.  Check the product pages to find out how to update your license if this is the case.
