Last year I upgraded Girlfriend 1.0 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 Pokernight 3.0 and
Beerbash 2.5 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected.  I
cannot seem to purge Wife 1.0 from my system.  I am thinking about going
back to Girlfriend 1.0 but uninstall does not work on this program. Can
you help me?

This is a very common problem men complain about but is mostly due to a
primary misconception.  Many men upgrade from Girlfriend 1.0 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 its
creator to run everything.

It is impossible to uninstall, delete,
or purge the program from the system once installed. You cannot go back
to Girlfriend 1.0 because Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this. Some have
tried to install Girlfriend 2.0 or Wife 2.0 but end up with more
problems than original system. Look in your manual under Warnings -
Alimony / Child Support. 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
Protection Faults (GPFs). You must assume all responsibility for faults
and problems that might occur. The best course of action will be to push
apologize button then reset button as soon as lockup occurs.  System
will run smooth as long as you take the blame for all GPFs.  Wife 1.0 is
a great program but is very high maintenance.
