Just went to run HL and its stuck in Demo Mode

[SAbel]

I just need to vent so take this post for what its worth
This has happened to me in the past but the only thing I have done was run updates to the systems.
After they finished 2 savage worlds still show that they need to update even thought they correctly installed and now all my data sets say HL is running in demo mode. I am just about to start a new D&D4E game tomorrow with 3 new players and SMACK I dont have a character management system so MAD. I know LW will fix it its just life has been kicking me and this is just another smack in my face.
Hopefully someone is working the weekend and I can get this fixed before people show up at my house.
