Update: This promotion has now ended.
As promised earlier this week, dotTech is teaming up with GlarySoft to bring everyone Glary Utilities Pro for free! For those that don’t know, Glary Utilities is a jack-of-all-trades software that can do all of the following (as per the developer):
Glary Utilities comes in two flavors: Glary Utilities Free and Glary Utilities Pro. The main differences between the two flavors as per the developer are that Glary Utilities Pro comes with:
- Automatic care in background
- Enhanced system fixing, optimizing and more
- Free 24×7 Technical Support
- Consent for commercial use Attention: This specific promotion entitles usage of Glary Utilities Pro for non-commercial use only.
So, as the title of this post says, dotTechies have the chance to get Glary Utilities Pro for free! This promotion will be open for 24 hours only – from 00:00 – 24:00 PST (Pacific Standard Time, or GMT -7) on May 12, 2010 – and everyone will receive 1 year of free updates. Note that you will only be able to grab a free license key within the 24 hour time frame, but you can use the key you get to install Glary Utilities Pro at a later date, if you wish.
Update: There was a communication problem between me and GlarySoft. We both agreed upon running the giveaway for 24 hours on May 12, 2010, but they live in China so they probably setup the giveaway for 24 hours Chinese time where as I ran the giveaway PST time (hence the giveaway “ended early”). GlarySoft and dotTech recognize this problem and apologize for it (see comment #86 for an official apology from GlarySoft). The giveaway is now open again and this giveaway has been extended by 6 hours and will now last until 06:00 PST May 13, 2010.
Anyone that has any problems or issues can e-mail GlarySoft at support [at] glarysoft.com before 0600 PST May 13, 2010 and they will be e-mailed a license. Also, any complaints can go to support [at] glarysoft.com.

got e-mail, but no reg.# just adds for 1/2 price product. Said give away had ended . will try again later unless you have a different way to get reg. code Thanks Jack B. P. S. It just 8:05 AM here in texas so there should be plenty of time left, it’s only 6 am on west coast, and it is the 12th.
I get the same reply from Glarysoft “giveaway was ended“.
It is 11:02pm 12 May in Australia
thanx for nothing?
GIVEAWAY ENDED!!! HAS IT BEEN 24 HRS YET??
Another “giveaway was ended”. When I shut down my computer last night at 8 PM it hadn’t started yet and now it is 9 AM so basically 13 hours later and it has already ended, are we all on the same 24 hour a day schedule????
@Saw Whet:
Well I just hope everyone DOES reply to it and let GlarySoft know what we all think of them.
i get the notification that giveaway is over.
I don’t get it!! And I didn’t get it! The response email says the freebie ended. Isn’t it May 12? Maybe my calendar is fowled up! Maybe I’m stupid or going insane – help me, please!
Comment anyone?
What a pity! The same for me. Just wanted to grab this top offer, but got disappointed by a “is over” replay – that are really short 24 hrs.
Greetings from Zurich
Another giveaway that ended before it started. I wonder if their lifetime licences are also that short?
It’s 7:25 MST and I just received a code. Try re-submitting, y’all!
@David Goldstein: let Glary Utilities know how you feel, I did. Until this matter is cleared up I will never again use or buy any products from Glary.
Submitted my request at 8:02am (central time) on May 12 and got the same reply as others that the promotion has ended. Doesn’t reflect well on Glary Software.
It’s May 12th at 9:29am est and got a giveaway has ended. Buy it at 1/2 off for a lifetime version. I think you were scammed Ashraf.
@David Goldstein: There are at least 30 comments above yours, describing the same problem
@Fred Smith: I did
It is now 8:34 CST and I re-submitted for the license code and received it!
many thanx for your giveaway. i really like glary utilities. but i have a little question if somebody hear me :)
license is 1 year or forever?
i asked because i saw “license expiration = never” on the program but license mail header about 1 year license?
thanx again.
OK – took your advice – applied again and this time got the license code. Now to see if it works! Thanks, all!
MerryMarjie was right. Resubmit it and you will get the code. Just got mine at 9:36am est. Thanks!!!
Just received mine…
Thanks Ashraf & Glary..
Same here. I resubmitted and got the license. BTW, I used a different email the second time.
I think that Glarysoft may not intend to make the mistake. There maybe some bugs or time error setting. It’s not worthwhile to scam.
I got my license by resubmitting for the third times.It finally works and it said:

Yes – applied code and ran the software – seems to work fine (Win 7 – 32 bit) – would like to see a fast defrag added, though!
Hurrrra – it worked. Thanks so much for this great giveaway!

Re-submitted as suggested above and received the correct email with registration code, despite now being 13th May here.
I was really steamed up over this absurd stuff up.
Installed program, re-started comp when given option, entered code. Great.
