As of June 15, 2018 BibleWorks ceased operation as a provider of Bible software tools. The old BibleWorks web site, activation server and forum are gone. This new forum is intended to provide a way for the thousands of people still using BibleWorks to communicate with one another. Click on "General BibleWorks Discussion" above to view messages.Or you can jump directly to two topics of general interest to everyone:
To post to this forum you must register your account. After you register and accept the TERMS OF USE, you will be sent an e-mail. You must respond to this e-mail and be activated by an administrator before you can post. This is necessary to limit the use of this forum for spam.
We get a LOT of forum registrations that we cannot activate because we got no response to the confirmation e-mail that was sent. A few are returned as undeliverable and we assume that they are spammers. We have no way of knowing if the other confirmation e-mails were even received. If you registered and never received the confirmation e-mail, you can send a message to forum@biblework.com. But check your spam folder first. Of course you are free to browse messages without registering. You just can't post to the forum or respond to messages.
I'm getting an error when I try to open bibleworks that says "This version of BibleWorks is time limited. You have now exceed the permitted time and the program needs to be refreshed."
It tells me to run bwupdate10.exe to get a new version of bibleworks but when I try to do that is says the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
I reactivated my old version of bibleworks 10 back in 2024 and it was working for a long time but now I'm getting this error. Any thoughts on how to solve this?
