Help for activating ProShow Gold version 9.0.3771
Since Photodex closed down January, 31 2020, users are unable to activate their ProShow Gold (despite having legitimate registration codes) when they migrate to a new PC or have a hard drive crash. The final version of ProShow Gold is 9.0.3797, but as yet I'm unable to provide an activation for that version. In the meantime, a previous version 9.0.3771 can be activated and does not need to connect to the non-existent servers which has failed many users. This activation can be used on multiple computers. Please refer to the screenshots I have done when I installed Gold. ProShow Gold will run on a Windows 8.1 and a Windows 10 and a Windows 11 PC. I do not use ProShow Gold myself, I use ProShow Producer. I did the screenshots on my Windows 10 computer but the process is exactly the same if you install Gold on your Windows 11 computer too.
I have posted this for friends who still want to use ProShow Gold, although it is not as feature rich as ProShow Producer. This is NOT a warez or crack site, it is simply for people at their wits end who are legitimate users of ProShow Gold. I am not depriving Photodex of revenue as the company has long gone off the scene, but many people still like using ProShow and find they can't activate their legitimate registration codes and therefore cannot "register" the software if they've had a crash or shifting to a new computer or laptop, etc.
ProShow Gold was released by the Photodex developers as more of an "introduction" to ProShow slideshows products. The features are very limited and the styles and transitions are very limited also. The majority of the styles and transitions Photodex released are made for ProShow Producer only and cannot be used by ProShow Gold. If you want to move on to use the "full featured" ProShow Producer which can utilise all the styles and transitions for ProShow Gold as well as ProShow Producer I recommended you move up to ProShow Producer, especially as it is available here on my resources website and 100% FREE! You will LOVE using all the wonderful features and options that Producer offers.

You cannot directly upload to Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, etc because all uploads to social media platforms went through the Photodex servers, but now that Photodex servers don't exist you need to render your show as a video file (mp4 is the most common format) then you can upload the video file to your social media, which is what I do when I upload an mp4 of a show onto my Facebook page or the ProShow Producer group that I run.
