Henry, I just need a copy of version 9. I want to install it so I can test it with my programs that read/write GEDCOM files. I've got the link now. Thanks!

Re: [LegacyUG] Download email?
John are you just testing the link? Or Do just need a copy of version 9? Regards Henry -Original Message- From: LegacyUserGroup On Behalf Of John Cardinal Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2019 4:48 PM To: 'Legacy User Group' Subject: [LegacyUG] Download email? Today I attempted to download the free version of Legacy v9. I have a license for Legacy v8 Deluxe, but have not yet downloaded/installed Legacy 9. I submitted my email address and name, responded to the "captcha" form, and got a page that said I should check my email. The message hasn't arrived and it's been about hours. After about a half-hour, I thought I should resubmit. I used a Gmail address in my original attempt, and I used the "+suffix" trick of appending text to the "real" address to track how the email address is used by the company that requests it. So, "exam...@gmail.com" can also be reached via "example+leg...@gmail.com". I dropped the suffix in case the Legacy mail system doesn't handle the suffix, which I have found to be the case with some systems. That was about 4.5 hours ago. No response yet. About 30 minutes ago, I submitted for a third time and used an email address that is not associated with Gmail. No response to that one yet. How long should I wait before assuming that the process just doesn't work? Has anyone else had trouble with this?

Re: [LegacyUG] Big Problem
I am one of the lucky ones who has not had the problem, even though I do have Hints turned on for MyHeritage, FamilySearch and FindMyPast. My suggestions were based on messages to this list, the Facebook User group, as well as some conversations on the Beta Test list where solutions to the Hints problem were discussed. I hope my suggestion has permanently fixed your issue with these error messages.
