Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed that the
new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of new
space and valuable resources. No mention of this phenomenon was included in
the product brochure.
In addition, Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and launches
during system initialization, where it monitors all other system activity.
Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Drunken Boys Night 2.5 and Saturday
Football 5.0 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected.
I cannot seem to keep wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run
some of my other favorite applications. I am thinking about going back to
Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall does not work on this program.
Can you please help me?

Dear Troubled User,
This is a very common problem men complain about, but is mostly due to a
primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0
with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT program.
Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by it's creator to run
everything.
It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still convert back to
Girlfriend 7.0. Hidden operating files within your system would cause
Girlfriend 7.0 to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing is gained. It is impossible to
uninstall, delete, or purge the program files from the system once
installed. You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not
designed to do this.
Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but end up with more
problems than the original system. Look in your manual under "Warnings-
Alimony/Child support". I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and deal with the
situation.
I suggest installing background application program C:\YES DEAR to alleviate
software augmentation. Having installed Wife 1.0 myself, I might also
suggest you read the entire section regarding General Partnership Faults
(GPFs). You must assume all responsibility for faults and problems that
might occur, regardless of their cause. The best course of action will be to
enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE. In any case avoid excessive use of C:\YES
DEAR because ultimately you may have to give the APOLOGIZE command before
the operating system will return to normal. The system will run smoothly as
long as you take the blame for all the GPFs.
Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high-maintenance. Consider buying
additional software to improve the performance of Wife 1.0. I recommend
Flowers 3.1 and Diamonds 2K. Do not, under any circumstances install
Secretary with Short Skirt 3.3. This is not a supported application for Wife
1.0 and is likely to cause irreversible damage to the operating system.
Best of Luck,
Tech Support
