Hi all, can anyone help please?
I have had full Roboform for many years so it's never been an issue for me, but I have recently helped my Mum choose and set up a new laptop (Windows 8 :eek:)
On her old lappy she had Robo free and it never asked to be upgraded after the trial period or anything but the only d/l I could find when setting up for her has just run out and is asking her every time she uses it, to upgrade.
She has no intention of upgrading for the few comps, mostly ITV's that she does so can anyone direct me to an "off" button for the reminder or an old version that won't do this but still work on the devil's spawn that is Win8 (can you imagine trying to teach a 75 year old how to use Win8 fresh from 6 years on XP?? I needed valium :rotfl:)
TIA

Thanks for your reply but I really didn't want to put a crack on Mum's new machine, I'm a bit of a "by the book" person to my detriment. I would just like her to have the old free versionThat ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free0
