Early on, all of the maps were in VGA format. Those were converted to EGA format in conjunction with a GeoClock version change at least 10 years ago. I haven't needed to change anything since then and it still runs as it should. That said, there are also the "space view" maps which did present a problem, and I did have to obtain replacements from him, but again that was close to 10 years ago.

I do recall having to change all the suffixes of the maps (I think) sometime ago on one of the GeoClock updates. I bought the full version and even my own Whitby-Centred VE3NO map, and my usage goes back 25 years or so, through many updates. If (as Russ says) there was a version update with Win7, I suggest you check the map-names, particularly the suffixes Sylvain.

I've always kept backups which I've used for that purpose when any became corrupted.

It worked well until recently, after changing my Vista laptop with a Win 7 machine. I went trough the registering processas it should and I entered my license key. Now, the software seem having been registered but I only have the 4 demo maps instead of the 45 maps I should normally have. I emailed the author some days ago asking for help but I'm still without any answer. I'm now wondering if there's any kind of support nowadays for this program? Is there something more "up to date" on the market that doesthe same job, or even better? Any hints would be welcome. Thank you.
