Is there any way of absolutely cleaning up a pc without formatting in order to re-install an trial application already expired?

The best way is, after an uninstall of the program (through the normal procedure) to remove the leftovers. Sometimes the program doesn't uninstall completely and you have to remove all folders referring to the program in question. Also, do a search for all files with the name of the program in it. Sometimes a program installs the 'expire-files' in a completely different directory than the original install folder. Remove them too. You also may check the registry for any references to the program (using the search option), and again, remove all references.
 
If the programme is that good that you want to continue using it, BUY IT
Thats the whole idea of the 30 day trial, it lets you try it out to make sure its the programme you really want.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
