Program Won't Run...

[hirsch]

Downloaded your latest version of Helicon Filter, did one picture and saved it and when I tried to do another an error window popped up "Internal Error - Invalid Argument To Date Encode" Tried various pictures and got the same error. The program all but stops when this error comes on... Any suggestions? Thanks, joe

Running a Dell, 1Gb mem, 360 Gb Hard Drive and windows XP Pro with all updates. Pictures are all Jpg's...

The date on your pictures is later than the date on your computer.

Who would have believed, Your right, the modified date was all over the map. Some as far out as 2027. Have no idea how that happen. Will be checking the rest of my files. Program seems to be working just fine now. By the way, how did you know... Thanks, joe

The program treats "future" dates in files as an attempt to manipulate system date and prolong trial period.

But this should not cause such errors, we will check it again.

I knew because I've seen threads like this before. You're welcome.

Dan, does the date restriction apply if you have an Unlimited Pro license? It shouldn't.

[Dan Kozub]

No, this should happen only with unregistered version. The problem with 2027 year was fixed in the version 4.65 which is currently on the server as far as I know.

Dan, does the date problem only occur if the user has a one-year license, and even then, it only blocks photos with the date being later than the end of the license period? Because that would make the most sense. Maybe even if someone opens a photo dated after the license expires, it should open the picture as in Helicon Filter Free. I think if this were the case, it would remove most of date problems.

good idea
