Getbhavcopy: Free NSE and BSE data downloader

Getbhavcopy version 2.1.9a, which i released couple of days back, did happen to resolve the issues with NSE data download for most of the users. However users still using Windows XP were reporting the following error message while trying to download data with version 2.1.9a:

Message Error checking version support for Getbhavcopy using static file.

Message The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.

I recently did a Google search for Getbhavcopy and was surprized to see the number of sites offering fake versions of Getbhavcopy, along with crack and serial.

Google search for maliscious Getbhavcopy

What raised my suspicion was that Getbhavcopy was being offered with Serial and Crack, which does not make sense because Getbhavcopy has always been free...

Wishing the Getbhavcopy user community and their families a very happy, prosperous, safe, successful and healthy 2016.

With the number of issues faced by the community with Getbhavcopy version 2.1.6a I felt it would be best to release a new version, but in doing so, it would make sense to have some functionality released in the new version rather than simply rebuild version 2.1.6a.

So I am releasing version 2.1.7a that fixes the issue with BSE Indices data download which has been broken since a long time.

Additionally, I used this opportunity to completely automate my...

PLEASE READ THE UPDATE BELOW

Many users have reported that Getbhavcopy 2.1.6a is not working/not starting/being reported as a virus. If you are faciing this issue then I assure you that there is no virus in Getbhavcopy. Version 2.1.6a was compiled on a brand new machine where Visual Studio C# 2010 is the the fist thing I installed - to get Getbhavcopy running for the community.

So then why is it being treated as ...

Thanks to Anil Kumar who brought to my notice that there was an issue with member registration on Getbhavcopy.com. I investigated the same and noticed that there were multiple members awaitng approval post registration, which per my assumption should not have been the case.

I have for now

1. Approved all pending registrations
2. Updated the site configuration that we should not face this issue.

Apologies to those who faced and inconvenience due to this, and than...

For the past few days I have been a lot busy, so taking the first opportunity to share the most important joy of my life with the Getbhavcopy community members, who have now become an extended family.

My wife delivered a baby girl on April 7th. Both mother and baby are fine.

We have named her Vidhi. Sharing her picture.

First of all I would like to apologise all the members of Getbhavcopy community for the delays caused in addressing your issues. I have been really very busy these days with my office work that I am unable to dedicate any time to address your woes.

Saying that, I am really impressed with the way community members are coming together to help each other out. I never expected Getbhavcopy to become so popular.

Mr. MurthyMSR (who has been a long time supporter) ...

For those who are regulars at my site and are wondering why I have noot been posting or answering to any queries lately, i would like to inform that it has been really hectic for me in the last two to three months and I have not had the time to respond to visit this site.

I apologise if any inconvenience caused to you.

Also I was busy with my move back to USA for a work related project, and was busy setting up my home internet so that once again I can start...
