    try using a registry cleaner, something like regsupreme to get rid of useless/obsolete registry entries, then try to reinstall.

    Google "Diskeeper cd key".

    The Retail version doesn't use a key, you just install it.

    Delete the installed program folder if it still exists (C:\Program Files\Executive Software)

    do a registry search for "Diskeeper" and remove all found entries
    I use "jv16 powertools 2005" for this type of thing, but I suppose most other reg cleaners will have a search function

    you should now be able to install the retail version (like the one in our verifieds)

    actually, thinking about it I would try this method first as it is easier.

    after making sure the installed program folder is deleted (as above)

    Start > Run > regedit
    and delete this root registry entry
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Executive Software

    now install the retail version
