probably 6-8 months ago when I did a fresh installation, the one that I received from the site was a pro version and now the one that I receive is a trial version from inside my account. That speaks of their having removed the pro version and put in its place a trial version, does it not or am I mistaken in my thinking. I think on the ticket it says that the version 6 servers are no longer available, but I don't know if that is the case.

I simply want to ensure that it is workable. Re the operating system, I won't be installing it on windows 10. I am using 8.1 at the moment on this computer. The windows 10 is the one that I broke LOL and for the record, it did work though it seemed a bit sluggish. I am rolling back most of my windows 10 machines. am not a huge fan, though I expect many of you are.
