I have been using a licensed copy of Winstep Ultimate for a long time. All of a sudden every time I log in I get a "Shareware Reminder" message. It tells me I have been using Nexus Ultimate Trial Edition for 15 days.

Is Winstep Ultimate supposed to stop working? What can I do?

Randy

No, it's not supposed to stop working unless you install an upgrade that is outside your 1 year of free upgrades period.

Before continuing, please read Nexus Ultimate Upgrade Policy. The information there should make everything clear.

Now one question so I can advise you on what to do next: did you install the upgrade via the Winstep Update Manager or did you download it from the web site? And, if the former, did the Update Manager re-direct you to Download.com or did it download and install the file itself?

Jorge,

I'm not entirely sure how I managed to goof things up. I think I upgraded it through the Winstep Update Manager. At any rate, I was able to use the link in Preferences -> Register to roll it back to the correct version. It's working fine once again.

Question for you. Is there some place on the Winstep web site where I can see what has changed in version 15?

Thanks for your help,
Randy

1. Whenever an update is out, the Winstep Update Manager, together with the new version info also shows you a 'What's new in this version?' link. Clicking that link will take you to...

2. The main page of the Winstep web site has a 'News' section at the right. New releases are always announced there. Clicking the 'Read More' link takes you to a page which describes in great detail what is new in that version.

For instance, for Nexus Ultimate v15.9 the info can be found HERE.
