BW10 Installation image posted
Hello, friends!
We've posted an updated BW10 ISO file. I don't advise you download it at this point unless you have lost your installation media. The reason I advise delay is that a) there is no rush to get the file, and b) if people clobber the server (the file is 22GB) it will likely come down and then nobody will be happy, and c) the ISO file will likely be updated again. There is nothing significant that is new in this ISO file if you have kept up with the updates. Furthermore, updates to the EXE continue to be posted in the in-program updaters. If you were up to date on July 24, 2018, don’t get the ISO. If you do a BW10 reinstall after July 24, 2018 you should do it from the ISO, not old media.
The links to the updated ISO file are on the webpage. The ISO file requires you have valid BW10 activation codes to run it. So, don't waste your time downloading it if you don't have legitimate activation codes.

Future Installations for BW9 to BW10 users with Modules?
I began with BW9 and Upgraded to BW10. During that process there was an upgrade code to ensure compatibility with older modules (I may not be understaning this correctly). Is there a specific process for future installs for BW9 to BW10 Upgrade users with Modules?
Latest ISO file (as of July, 2018)
Dear Michael, et al.
I inquired about this soon-to-be latest ISO file when I first received news that BibleWorks was closing a couple months ago. I didn't receive a clear answer to these questions: what happens if a reinstall of BW10 is needed in the future, and one doesn't have access to the internet for activation (but does, have copies of the activation codes themselves).
In other words, is it *absolutely necessary* to have an internet connection (and, for that matter, for the BW website to continue in operation, in order to be accessed for the sake of activation) in order for a future reinstall of BW10 to be completed, say a year or two from now?
What if the BW website ceases to be? What if a person is in a location with the ISO file and activation codes saved, but no access to the internet? Does this newest ISO file take any of this into account? (All I was told from BW support before the close was something like, "We're working on that... Download the newest ISO when it comes out."
Next, can purchased add-on modules (e.g. BDAG / HALOT lexicons) that require activation still be activated in the future, provided we have saved the activation codes?
Thanks,
Aram

Hello, My question relates to the sentence "If you do a BW10 reinstall after July 24, 2018 you should do it from the ISO, not old media."
I bought extra versions of Bible Works 10 for the PC before the deadline date. I have not installed them. I am saving them in case I have a hard drive crash where I am now running Bible Works. If I have a crash and have to build a new computer with a new hard drive, and I want to use my extra version of Bible Works and install it on the new computer, what will I do? When Bible Works was operating, I would install the software and then through an online process verification would take place. Does this ISO file replace that process? I DO have activation codes that I bought and would be using for a future installation like this.
1. If I have to install Bible Works, say, later this year, does this ISO file have something to do with it? (I don't understand the reference to the "image" file. I don't understand what that means.)
2. If I need the ISO file to install Bible Works on a new computer in the future, what process do I follow once I have downloaded the ISO file? How do I point my computer to it? My question is: What, exactly, in clear simple language, are the steps I would follow assuming I have downloaded the ISO file and am now trying to do a new installation of Bible Works with the activation codes I bought before the company closed?
3 .Also, I have tried to download the ISO file. I have a thumb drive with 29 Gb of free space. The file will not download. I have even tried downloading to an external drive, have tried it on multiple computers, have followed the instructions Google provides for files that don't download and cannot get the file to download. What is wrong?
If anyone responds, please speak in simple terms, without jargon.
Thank you,
Jane Kerber

Michael: I have downloaded the latest BW10 ISO file, but what do I do with it? When I booted BW10 it was still the outdated version.
Update my BW10 USB drive with latest ISO
Yesterday I thought I would download the latest ISO and then update the BW USB drive installation disk. However I ran into a surprise when I couldn't remove write protection and update it. Has anyone tried to do this and had success? I tried the two main methods most websites point to (using the DOS Diskpart, and changing Regedit storagedevicepolicies). Thanks for the help. Kyle
Can't access the Download
I can get to the Google Drive page that has the .iso (after entering my Activation code) but Google Drive says that the download limit has been reached. Can this be reset?

My wife and I have owned BibleWorks for 15 years or so, complete with BDAG and other unlocks.
I'm attempting a new install on a new laptop from the ISO (what is 'ISO'?) file in the title. The ISO install doesn't work, appearing to be corrupted files. Hitting the 'Retry' and 'Ignore' buttons during the install does not work either.
I've read this thread, attempting to learn what to do, can't quite figure it out, but with a little coaching I believe I'd be okay.
We still have our USB thumbdrive copy of BW10 and are wondering if we should simply go back to that, however with one or two attempts to install from the ISO file, we now have a Bibleworks folder at
C > Program Files (86) > BibleWorks 10
but the install was not far enough along to actually create a program at
C > Settings > Applications
so we cannot delete the program there.
Therefore if we were to attempt another install from the thumb drive we're not sure what would occur. Any suggestions?

Sometimes when you begin an installation that did not complete, it makes it difficult to complete an installation afterwards because what is already there interferes with the new installation.
If that happens, it may be possible to clean out the old and then a new installation should work.
If the BW installation window offers three options (modify, repair, delete or remove) choose delete, then reboot the laptop, then try a fresh installation as above.
You're likely correct in that a failed first installation may be interfering with the new installation...in fact, there were two failed installations from weird stuff.
The new BW setup file installation window doesn't readily offer repair, delete, or remove options, that I can find. There was some kind of 'modify' option, but when I tried it, that one only allows one to add to the current installation.
I ran the 'Check BibleWorks Media Integrity' option. I don't understand what it is reporting, although I think it says we're good. This would only confirm that the failed installations corrupted my drive. Attempted to upload a screen shot of what that looked like, but can't get it to upload.
Would editing the registry in order to follow the rest of your instructions work? We're using Windows 10. I am comfortable with that. Found BibleWorks in one place only: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\B ibleWorks
Sure grateful for your help.
