They (Ashampoo) had always been 'heavy' on advertising (e-mails), but having and keeping Account with them has advantages of having handy (in 'My Ashampoo') every License Key of every Product (including GOTD) in case their Software has to be re-installed. Version 5 given here 2 years ago was 53.6 MB in size, today's Giveaway is 31.8 MB, so in case one wants to keep the other one and this somewhat 'lighter' version - it has to be installed into a different path (I have 5 and fully updated 6 in different locations and that's allowed) Previous version - Photo Opitmizer 5 here: Hi, for easier access to it and perhaps some useful past Comments (like Registration issues/logging into Ashampoo Account, giving e-mail address a.s.o) go here: Not all manufacturers have decided to dump on their customers. Thanks for the suggestion, but since the new OS versions don't offer anything I need, I'll stick with what's working just fine for me (also the other product offered does support Win XP). If I want to spend a few thousand dollars, I'd take a nice vacation to a warm topic, not spend my evenings swearing at Microsoft while I try to update or reinstall my software. I just don't see a need for spending hundreds of dollars for a new computer to run the upgrade (which costs a few hundred dollars more) that will destroy my existing software installs (which will cost a few thousand dollars to replace), reduce the features I use, requires expensive new software purchases and retraining because Microsoft decided to play "hide the option" with the user menus. The issue of Windows security is a joke to Microsoft. Windows has been regressing the features and functions available to users in favor of useless and annoying interface changes that no one wants or needs. :) I do use Win 7 at work and it is ok, but the Virtual Desktop was a major step backwards from Win Xp in that you can't start a process in one desktop and move it to another. Manfred, You can have my Win XP when you pry it from my cold dead hand. Installed on Windows 7 64bit with no problems at all. ![]() I have been a member of there software and WEB store for many years and have never been spammed! Or, Received piles of e-mails I did not want! They sent me the news letter once or twice a month and I asked them to stop one time and they quit right away! They are a great company to deal with, always have my apps available for download and keep all my registration numbers on the site if I ever need them, There software works as good as Photoshop! I am a photographer and I can get the same great results from there photo programs as I get from PS at a fraction of the cost! Thanks Ashampoo for another grate app update and Thanks to everyone at GOTD for there offers from a great company. ![]() Just FYI, Another great software app from Ashampoo! I also just payed for the upgrade to version 6 since it was offered today for half price! (o I have perchesed a lot of different apps from Ashampoo and they never disappoint and are very high quality. ![]() ![]()
