Important information for registered users of an older version:

After upgrading to a new Windows version AOMrecord needs new license key in some cases. This key is free for users whose version was purchased less than 2 years ago. All others can upgrade for a reasonable upgrade fee (look here, too). With the other Windows versions AOMrecord works without a new key if the previous version was 2.1 or 2.0.

2 is not a free upgrade from 1! The free upgrade period has expired.

Make sure to save an older version for the case that you decide to stay with the older version! Older Versions will not be available for download any more! You are the only one who is responsible for your data backup!
