Wife 1.0

Subject: Failed Upgrade
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 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 Smoking 10.3, Boozing 2.5 and Saturday Night Pubs
5.0 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected. I cannot keep Wife 1.0
in the background while attempting to run some of my other favorite applications
like Night Club 4.3, Dance 'n' Drink 2.0 and Bachelor Party 7.77. I am thinking
about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall does not work on this
program. Once I tried to uninstall Wife 1.0 but got this error: "General
Protection Fault in module House Security. The Un-installation will abort."
Can you help me, please?
Here was the reply from Tech Support:
Re: Failed Upgrade
This is a very common problem among men, but it is due mostly 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 actually an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to run
everything. It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still
convert back to Girlfriend 7.0. It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or
purge Wife 1.0 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;"
this was given to you at time of registration with Wife 1.0. I recommend you
keep Wife 1.0 and just deal with the situation. Having Wife 1.0 installed
myself, I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding General
Partnership Faults (GPFs). The best course of action will be to enter
the command C:\APOLOGIZE. In fact I would suggest you use this command every
time Wife 1.0 crashes on your system. 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 2.1 and Chocolates 5.0 or
Movies 4.5. Do not, under any circumstances, install Visual 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. Recent
surveys show add-ons like Visual Dress 2.0, Diamond Necklace 3.0, and A
Quick Tour To Temple 1.0 are the best Third Party tools supported by Wife
1.0 to allow it to run smoothly and effectively. Best of luck!
