Hi Damon,
Did you follow the upgrade instructions I sent you earlier? I have resent the instructions via email.

This is what i got by email. It's for 3.2.2 but it will do as well for 3.2.4:
1. Download the trial copy of version 3.2.2
2. It is recommended that you make a backup copy of your current FileVista folder so that you can roll back if anything goes wrong.
3. Copy files FileVista\App_Data\database\FileVista.mdb and FileVista\App_Data\FileVista.config to a separate location.
These files are important as they contain all the data specific to you installation.
You will NOT need to unlock the trial version again as your license key is kept in your current database.
If you prepared a custom language file in FileVista\languages subfolder than keep a copy of it too, you will need to add new strings to your language file for version 3.2 though.
Also note FileVista's version as you will need it in step 7.
4. Depending on your previous installation method:
•If you previously installed FileVista via the MSI setup file than uninstall it from Add/Remove programs. If any files or subfolders are still left under the uninstalled FileVista folder, delete all.
•If you previously installed it manually than delete all files and subfolders under your FileVista folder.
5. Depending on the new installation method you choose:
•Run FileVista.msi which is found in the FileVista-v3.2.2-trial.zip and install the application to the same folder as your previous installation.
•Manual: Copy all the files and subfolders from FileVista folder in the FileVista-v3.2.2-trial.zip to your existing FileVista folder.
6. Put the files FileVista.mdb and FileVista.config that you made copies of in step 3 to the same places under your newly installed FileVista folder,
i.e. overwrite the files with the same names: FileVista\App_Data\database\FileVista.mdb and FileVista\App_Data\FileVista.config.
7. Run http://www.MyWebSite.com/FileVista/update.aspx and choose your current version (range) correctly. If you choose v2.x, then you will be prompted for your new v3.x license key. Complete the update wizard, close your browser and restart the application.
