So, each time I go to save a file, it offers me to save it as a wav file, even after I saved the last 20 as mp3.

I noticed that hardly anyone ever gets a reply in here but thought I'd ask anyway

In options, I have selected "Use the format settings which were used last time" yet each time I save a region of an mp3, it asks me what mp3 settings I require.

It's a mild irritation rather than the end of the world however I would like it not to do this, if anyone knows the answer.

V 1.14 is one of our earliest versions. It was released in Nov 2007. Ive read through the release notes and I cant pinpoint the date when this changed but I do recall the backup and restore functions we a bit hit and miss in the early days. Its a very simple process now.

You can download the newest free version at any time, but I would wait until 2.11 is released to avoid the 'invoice total' bug. Make up backup of 1.14 incase you don't like the new version you can roll back.

C:\program files\NCH Software\Express Invoice

You're right. I finally got the latest software and it is running fine and has restored my earlier backup.

I apologise and take back my earlier comments.

For free software, with backup and restore function this software is excellent.

I have version 1.14. UNder the tools menu there is indeed the option to backup, But there is NOT an option to restore!

Express Invoice is free, there is no paid version. Backup/Restore is there for anyone to use. If its not appearing, make sure you have the latest version.

 

ehem... just today a paid 'Plus' version has been released.. should have no bearing on this answer though going by the date of post but will go on a mission to find some more info

When I read this post, I was looking to find out why I could not use my previous invoices after reinstalling my machine.

I downloaded the latest version, which like all others I have had does not have restore enabled, and the day I made that post the Plus 'paid for' version was available, which was why I made my post.

I saw it as a cynical move to disable restore facility, so i moved to a different invoice software.

My facts are correct.

I did email NCH about this, although I never did receive a reply.

It should be able to be removed the same as any other program, Control Panel > Add Remove Programs if your on XP, for Vista Control Panel > Programs and Features > Right Click > Remove.

Well that's not really helpful when he's already said it's not in control panel duh

Go to your program files folder, and look in the installation folder, typically NCH software. Under express invoice double click the file uninst.exe and that should work.

If not, delete that whole folder, then do a registry clean for all items named nch, assuming you have no other nch software that you wish to keep of course

Any body care to reply.

If you're using the free version, see post http://nch.invisionzone.com/index.php?show...amp;#entry27344

If you've paid for it, look under Tools/Backup-restore

Hi,

 

What operating system do you have? Is it MAC OS or Windows based?

I assume you're using the free version, otherwise you would see the backup /restore buttons under Tools. So here's the bad news....

When you add an item, a customer, and/or create an invoice, all of these actions (in the free version) are recorded in windows registry. There is no user database holding the information.

Yes you can use the backup facility to backup the data files, but you cannot restore them unless you pay for the program. I think that's a cynical way of getting you to buy but hey...that's life.

So, if you could be bothered, you could export all of the relevant registry settings, then import them back into your registry once you have reinstalled the program, or put it onto a new machine if that's what you're doing.

Personally I stopped using it because if you make a lot of records, your registry is going to bloat even worse than MS software.

You'll find all the data in the registry at HK current user\software\nch software
