Your update process is running at essentially 0 bytes per minute. I don't know why, since my comcast internet connection is over 60Mbits/second. I've tried two times now to run the automatic update, and both times, it spent 10 or so minutes stumbling through quicksand, before giving up and asking me to start over. I would prefer to separately download the installation program, if at all possible??

heh... okay, no need to panic... I downloaded the original shareware installer from CNET, installed it, and everything seems to be fine...

I was a little confused about all the questions about "is this a native theme, or third party??" ... honestly, I don't quite know the answer... I answered Native to all, hopefully nothing is broken.

Unfortunately the Winstep server is getting hammered with traffic at this point. :(

It's a new server and it apparently can't handle such a heavy load very well...

That's fine!!! The original installer worked fine, and several bugs that I was having trouble with (one of which, I didn't even know was a bug!) are fixed, including showing the date in the correct order!!

Thank you soooo much for getting this fix out, I am so grateful; I *love* Winstep, and was praying for the date fix, that was the only issue that I really cared about...

Just renewed my subscription and downloaded and installed 15.7. Upgrade was painless.

I love this software! :D It is such a fantastic, extremely well made and thought out product. Works perfectly all the time, hugely customizable. It is everything I want a product like this to be. It exceeds all my expectations. After 3 years I am still finding out things I can do with it.

I wish all software was created this well. Fantastic work Jorge. This product is WELL worth the money, actually it is worth more.

Just wanted to issue the well deserved compliment and express my thanks.

Brock

This is the most awesome productivity enhancer I have ever owned. (aside from PowerPro, which I still use) Although it is not the first program I installed after my Win 10 upgrade, (after all, what good is a program launcher with no programs to launch?) It was definitely one of the important ones. After installing and loading the backup, I was easily able to see which programs were not yet installed by looking for the question mark icon! (I still have a few more to install!) I had to fix some of the icons because the location was different but all in all it is working flawlessly! Thank you for an excellent program Jorge! (can I get my check now?) :D 8) :D :P

I'll praise Winstep Xtreme for free! I just updated to the latest version 15.7 from my ancient 12.2 Totally for free! Damn, how nice it looks and flows on my old Dell computer. And Jorge, we have a deal you and I, and I intend to keep it! :D
