I accept and understand that everything can't be accommodated, but if one

First, thanks to you and Ron for the reminder about Ctrl+i. I also realized

Before you do anything else, copy your database file to, say, your flash/thumb

It will have the name of your family file and the '.fdb' extension. So, for
example, mine is called 'miller.fdb'. It's probably in the 'Legacy' folder (I

When you do this uninstall that I instructed, you will not lose any data.
Legacy protects your Family Files and settings files when the program is
uninstalled.
