Re: No my question was not complete. thread was closed before my final comments
@browj2
I find it frustrating that once in a while, someone comes along and starts questioning the whole thing as if it's something new that they just discovered, bla bla bla, and we start the entire discussion again.
I think this snarky comment is pointed at me since I started both threads. Let me clarify since you don't know me.
It IS something new, just discovered for me. I have run version 11 on a beastly old computer. It was NOT under the 365 system. I was honestly confused by the major change from all the other versions I have used since 2004. Honestly frustrated at the lack of content.
If Xara/Magix had done a better job of informing me of the program limitations (all content online, none installed with program and how the updates now function), I would not have bought a useless CD. I would not have posted. Would not have questioned. If you are so frustrated, why chime in, you can choose to ignore the thread and skip this and any other discussion of its kind.
Unlike you, Acorn and Handrawn helped me to understand today's Xara. They understood HOW and WHY I was confused and helped to get me on a working path that fit my offline needs.

Sadly, I expected we wouldn't get fixes during our 365 period. From @Xara's comments, I would definitely expect to lose them anyway on reinstall.
Software reinstall can happen anytime 5 months. 2 years, 4 years... no telling. Caused by hardware failure, File corruption in program, support tells you to, purchase new or replace equipment. So knowing what you have and what you can reinstall is extremely important. It would be lovely if I don't have to reinstall this software any time soon, but if I do, I am prepared for it, thanks to this forum.
