Thanks for the info.
When trying a brand new installation I got to the box where it asks for my
call sign and registration code. On entering my registration code it tells
me it is invalid or expired so I will order the program and start as a new
user. I just hope the WRITELOG files I already have on the PC won't mess up
the new installation and that my prior contest files will be saved.
I purchased the program in Feb 2013 so it has been a year and has expired.
However, I thought you could still open and use the program but could not do
updates without a new subscription. But it will not attempt to open; it just
tells me I have a bad registration code.
What I find strange is I pulled my old PC that I no longer use out of the
garage on which I first installed WRITELOG on. When I click on the WRITELOG
shortcut the program opens FB and shows ver 11.14B Sept 2013. There are no
contest files in the program because I never used that PC in a contest. But
I find it strange that the program will open normally and I would guess
would work using ver 11.14B if I wanted to use it that way. But I will get a
new install for the current contest PC.

The version you purchased and updates for a year should work just fine so I
think the issue is to simply re-install the version you bought. You should
have an email which came with the necessary instructions and links.
I do not use Windows 8 myself and having just upgraded my shack computer
from Win XP pro, I will probably skip Win8 altogether unless I end up buying
another PC - so I am not familiar with the various defaults in terms of
directories.
I suspect the reason Writelog is not running and referring to an invalid
code is because its looking in a directory and not finding your valid code
- which is no doubt on the computer just not "visible" to writelog.
Try a clean install and see if that works.
