Attachment 5911

Date and time change has been fixed by using 3 different programs I’ve found on the forums that weren’t made at the same time. Yet they work beautifully together.

Do a clean uninstall of any old Bearshare!

Unzip steps 1, 2, and, 3 to desktop

STEP 1: BSTEST 5.1 Beta (Vista and Win7).zip INSTALL UNDER ADMIN AND XP SERVICE PACK 2!
Don’t launch Bearshare at the end of the installer. Don’t run Step 2 if bearshare is running!!

STEP 2: BearShare 5.1 Beta ConnectFix April 2012.zip INSTALL UNDER ADMIN AND XP SERVICE PACK 2!

STEP 3: Download RunAsDate or Download RunAsDate for x64

INSTALL UNDER and RUN AS ADMIN & XP SERVICE PACK 2.

(again I ONLY TESTED ON WINDOWS 7 32BIT)

STEP 4: While in date changer, create new shortcut, running it as ADMIN/XP SERVICE PACK 2.

Setting the right date (this will not change your actual date and time on your computer). Think of it as a time emulator for Bearshare.

STEP 5: Launch program via new shortcut. In order to start using, . I suggest searching for something immediately upon program launch. It helped me for instant success! must wait til a number appears in lower right hand corner. It will have a green globe symbol in front of the number before downloading.
