    Can Program files be repaired using Win 7 Previous Versions


    My computer experienced a power glitch leaving some files corrupted. Multiple system restores failed, some of them pointing to an unnamed, damaged Maximizer file. A CHKDSK was run and it fixed what it could but the residual effects left some important features of Maximizer 11 Entrepreneur, a contact manager, inoperable. This could be caused by a damaged executable or a data file used by Maximizer. The program is no longer supported.

    I can restore the Maximizer folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Maximizer\ going back to many dates before my disk problem using Previous Versions but I'm not sure this will lead to a fix. Will the files prior to the disk problem be OK? The files in previous folders have the same "Date modified" according to Explorer. Is there a utility that can check for file differences?

    Has anyone tried to repair programs using such a technique. If so, I would appreciate learning from your experience.

    I was going to suggest trying booting your Windows install disk and running Start Repairs, however, I'm not sure that will help.
    Let the far wiser than I techs come aboard this thread and give you much better ideas!

    Thanks for the response, Roland.

    Windows appears to be working fine. It's the Maximizer application that needs repair.

    My Maximizer program works.

    My problem was the result of a configuration file, or something, getting corrupted. Resetting the Maximizer windows to the program defaults fixed my issue. Much simpler than I originally thought. I will need to figure out a comprehensive backup /restore strategy for this program.

    Looking for Maximizer 7 or Entrepreneur 1- installation files


    Hi,
    I've been searching for the installation files as I moved countries and lost mine (yes, no backup in the cloud at that time). I still have my keys for both, so I came across your post and wondered if by any chance you had the installation files and would let me have a copy? Maximizer can't/won't help me. Thanks!

    I did some digging and couldn't find it myself. Total BS you pay for something and the company isn't willing to help you, or at least give you the product download you paid for all those years ago. If it were me I'd find an alternative.

    Don't trust reviews. Not on those websites, Amazon, TrustPilot, no where. Use a mine cart full of salt.
