I am under the impression that software degrades over time because it is copied and re-written as it is opened and closed.
Am I right? If I am wrong, why does software degrade over time?
I am having trouble with software running on an old Windows platform; the system does not have Sleep Mode and Defrag is NOT available [I think Defrag is on the computer, but has been locked out], so that can not be the source of the crashes.
The application [a generally rugged commericial application] opens and sets up fine, but I get a sharing violation when I try to run it.
