Thank you to all who have downloaded (and purchased) file@home since the launch of version 2, we're extremely proud that it's been received so well.
There have been a couple of minor updates since it was launched, but the update that has just been added is our boldest moved yet. Inspired by our good friends over at
NeverOverwrite.com we've made a change to our licensing.
Before this change, when the evaluation period expired, you wouldn't be able to get back into the application to retrieve the documents you'd added - talking this through, it's akin to holding your documents to ransom - pay us or you can't get them back (which is not what we were trying to do at all - it's just how the majority of the license models are and like sheep we followed).
So, what have we done? well come the end of the evaluation, you'll now be able to retrieve your documents, what you won't be able to do is add new ones. Every other feature of the program will remain intact.
Now if you've come to the end of your evaluation already and you're locked out of the software - never fear, just download the latest version from our web site and install it over the top of the current installation and all will be good. for those of you still within your evaluation period, you can run "Check for Updates" from the Help menu.
Happy Filing
