So you’re able to use a Comcast or Gmail account to sign up and buy something, but not to contact support? 😄
Computer related services/company’s are all just crap now. The free ones seem to be fine.
And we let this happen. Once, boycotting had an effect. Now they just don’t care. Sub prices absorb the users that leave.

As @pseymour suggested, that link could be for businesses only because it seems that's the only email addresses that that link accepts. I guess there could be a link for regular customers that I didn't see.

Not the same. Norton Ghost 2003 didn't do all that hippy stuff, and it was FREE.

Just did backups and restores, had bootable rescue media, and protected it's own backups.

All these geek favorite companies have the same fate eventually: they get enshitified. The past 20+ years have plenty of examples. Macrium is not there yet, but there are early signs that's where it's headed.

I have noticed in the last 25 years, that backup software doesn't have very much time in the limelight.

Whether it can't keep up with Windows, or just gets over-bloated, or starts costing an arm and a leg...
Five or six years seems to be a good run for backup software.


Ofc, I still miss Norton Ghost 2003, the best backup software ever made.

There is always something that comes along to replace them.

You can believe me or not…
Whenever I go to Canada, my two brother-in-laws, without fail at least one night of my trip, will call “Mailboxes”
That can only mean one thing and it makes me raotflmfao.
Off we go, 30 min of swinging a baseball bat which isn’t easy when hanging out the window of their, what I can only describe as “Monster trucks”
One of them is a 4 times decorated RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) which makes it even funnier.

Every time I visit. 😄

I’m waiting for Hasleo to get their userbase up and go sub.

I do credit Hasleo a lot. Maybe I should be dissing them to slow down the inevitable.

I save every old version of a software now. Just in case.

People go on about all sorts of stupid crap in regards to Macrium, have you not read the threads? You have I know you have 😃

I read it. I will say that I don't like the idea of Macrium going to a subscription but the 4 license pack at $50.00 a year comes out to only $12.50. Probably around the same price as a pack of cigarettes.

Click to expand...

That’s a cheap pack of smokes. In Australia, they raise the price 3 times a year (via tax) because they think it’s the best deterrent for smokers.
Most smokers are now paying over $150 a week for their habit. Some, well over $200. Illegal under the counter smokes have become all the rage. (Think Hasleo vs Macrium)

Regardless, I get your point. For some software It’s affordable, I just don’t agree with the model.

That’s a cheap pack of smokes. In Australia, they raise the price 3 times a year (via tax) because they think it’s the best deterrent for smokers.
Most smokers are now paying over $150 a week for their habit. Some, well over $200. Illegal under the counter smokes have become all the rage. (Think Hasleo vs Macrium)

Regardless, I get your point. For some software It’s affordable, I just don’t agree with the model.

Back in the seventies I was a heavy smoker. I was up to two packs or more a day. The reason I gave it up was because they raised the price to 60 cents a pack and I thought that was way to expensive. As a bonus, two months later I met the girl that was to become the future Mrs. Winuser. She's a non smoker.

I got so busy with Reflect X and this thread I never did get to starting that Macrium how-to. That's what got me into wanting to upgrade. It seems that the older I get , they easier I get sidetracked.

Not the same. Norton Ghost 2003 didn't do all that hippy stuff, and it was FREE.

Just did backups and restores, had bootable rescue media, and protected it's own backups.

Not sure I know what you mean by "hippy stuff". Pretty much all it does is backups, but that's okay.

Other than the recovery disk, the one thing I hate is the file and folder backup function. The recommend not using it for more than 10,000 files.

With Reflect I create a disk image backup but I also use File and Folder backup to backup a library of files that has way over 10,000 files.

I’m waiting for Hasleo to get their userbase up and go sub.

I do credit Hasleo a lot. Maybe I should be dissing them to slow down the inevitable.

I save every old version of a software now. Just in case.

All that stuff that most of us don't need.
Incremental, differential, emails, etc.

Most of us just need backup, restore and bootable media.
