David, Try a Clean Uninstall. Go to the Program Files (x86) for Legacy Find RemoveLegacy.exe Right click and run as administrator. That should remove Legacy completely apart from your data files. It removes settings and removes all references to it in the Registry. For instructions with pics see

I strongly agree with the others who warned about deleting people from your database according to DNA ethnicity results. Such results are not exact. DNA only suggests a region where people with a particular cluster of genes in common mostly originate from. The regions or countries given by each

Hints from MyHeritage to Legacy have not been working for me since the server problems started more than 2 months ago - very disappointing! Any suggestions to fix this? MyHeritage hints worked perfectly from the start of Legacy 9 up to May this year and hints from FamilySearch and FindmyPas
