A:AnswerI'm not surprised the company has not continued support for software that becomes too obsolete or unable to run on new operating systems, older versions are immediately discontinued when a new version comes out. (x.00 where the first number or name changes). I bought the packaged version. It does require internet to download and update if you decide to use your digital code or it has a DVD where you can install it from the disc. I usually find the packaged version on sale and with deeper discounts than a digital only copy.
A:AnswerHad the same problem. Could not open my"old" business cards I made with the 18 version and saved on a thumb drive .
They were not compatible with the new PM Platinum.
Gladly I found the old disk and could download the 18 again.
Now everything works. It is sad that the Broderbund Company does not make it work with older versions.
