Dear Tech Support:

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed that
the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of
space and valuable resources.No mention of this phenomenon was included
in the product reference guide.

In addition, Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and
launches during system initialization, where it monitors all other
system activity.

Applications such as Attaya 1.0, PokerNight/Mariasse 10.3, DrunkenKoto
Night 2.5 and Saturday Football 5.0 no longer run, crashing the system
whenever selected. I cannot seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background
while attempting to run some of my other favorite applications.

I am thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but uninstall does
not work on this program. Can you help me, please!!!

Thanks,
Bai Pol



Dear Bai,

Koto ,I understand your frustration but you are not alone; believe me.
This is a very common problem men complain about but is mostly due to a
primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife
1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a "UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT"
program.

Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to run
everything. It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and
convert back to Girlfriend 7.0. Hidden operating files within your
system would cause Girlfriend 7.0 to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing is
gained. It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or purge the program
files from the system once installed.

You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not backward
compatible to do this. Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or
Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than the original system. Look
in your manual under "Warnings-Alimony/Child Support." I  recommend you
keep Wife 1.0 and just deal with the situation.

Having Wife 1.0 installed myself, I might also suggest you read the
entire section regarding General Partnership Failures (GPFs). You must
assume all responsibility for faults and problems that might occur,
regardless of their cause. The best course of action will be to enter
the command C:\APOLOGIZE.

In any case avoid excessive use of the "Esc" key because ultimately you
will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the operating system
will return to normal. The system will run smoothly as long as you take
the blame for all GPFs. Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high
maintenance.

Consider buying additional software to improve the performance of Wife
1.0. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Setti Orr 5.0. Do NOT, under any
circumstances, install Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3 or worse Nenneh
Tutti 3.0. They are not supported application with Wife 1.0 and is
likely to cause irreversible damage to the operating system, especially
for those of you who have not completely uninstalled Girlfriend 7.0
from their system.

Best of luck,
