I made the mistake of updating Legacy I didn't do it right away after seeing this message and did it at the end of last week. Now my file is messed up. I have tried all the steps, including downloading the trail version. I can't get a clean install because Legacy won't uninstall. I would like to get Legacy off my computer if anyone can help. It goes thru the uninstall process but it is still there and you can open the program. When I try a second time, I get a message saying it can't find the uninstall log. I re-download the free version a 2nd time but still have the same problem.
I was told to continuing working with the program that they are working on a fix but I am not going to continue to enter data into something that is screwed up.

The common recommendation is to download the full standard free version and install it over the previous program. If you have deluxe, the installer will find your license and authorize it again. Then "Restore" your most recent backup. Hope that works for you.

I back up using a separate programme and onto a separate drive completely.

It caused my computer to crash and now I cannot open Legacy at all. It says it is an “unrecognised database format”. Any ideas on how to fix this please? Thanks.
