Re: [LegacyUG] New feature!

Bill, You'll likely have more problems if you don't update as the security certificate is about to expire and has been updated in this 339 update. Many people have updated with no problems. If you are used to doing Legacy updates you should have no problem though may need to pause your

I’ve read so many posts about issues users are having. Is it safe to upgrade to the latest version? I’m not that great with solving problems even though using Legacy for several years. Bill Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 23, 2020, at 8:53 PM, Cathy Pinner wrote: > > Christopher, > >

Re: [LegacyUG] New feature!

Christopher, Nothing in the update could remove the FS IDs from your family file. However, an update can sometimes change some settings including Options > Customise 1.2 which controls which file is opened when Legacy opens. That may have happened and a different file to the one you normally

Jack, I wonder if you need to empty your Internet Explorer cache/Temporary Internet files - and yes I mean Internet Explorer as a form of that is used for internal display of websites. If you've uninstalled Internet Explorer, that could be the problem I guess. Also try deleting this folder:

Eva, Next time just restart your computer. That closes any lock files that didn't clear properly when the file was closed. The alternative, if you are comfortable with doing it, is looking through your Data Folder and deleting any files with an ldb extension. You have to make sure you are only

Make sure you have all other programs closed and then right click the installation file and select Run as Administrator. That will keep you from having DLL errors. Michele Simmons Lewis, CG® Legacy Educator Legacy Family Tree/MyHeritage

Re: [LegacyUG] If you are having problems updating

Success! I noted in one of the posts that a recommended method to get the 339 update to install was to *run Windows 10 in Safe Mode*. While it was a bit tedious to get it into Safe Mode, once I got it there, the Legacy uninstall was trivial. This process avoided any issue regarding Windows

Sorry. I must be in that 1% I shut off Windows Defender and SmartScreen, but it still does not install. The other suggestion I saw was to run Windows 10 in Safe Mode to install. Why do you folks make it so complicated? The concept of installing an update was very simple for a long time. Now it is
