    Re: Privacy expert suite 8

    Hi There Everyone,
    I'm new to this forum and already have problems with Acronis Privacy Expert suite 8. I have Acronis Utilities2004, I purchased the upgrade Privacy Expert suite8 but when I enter the Reg key in the last window last digit it freezes up on me then I have to boot in order to get out of it. Can someone give me Advice?

    Did you upgrade Power Utilities to the latest build (504) before attempting to upgrade? I don't know if that will make a difference but it's worth a try. Also make sure you are using the 'new' key and not the old one you had with Power Utilities. Finally, is that a valid upgrade path? Perhaps you need to upgrade to Power Utilities 2005? You may not be able to upgrade individual components of Power Utilities. Just things for you to think about and hopefully it will help. Good luck.

    I have tried every possible thing I even cleaned out my computer and put fresh WIndows in, The upgrade notes do allow upgrades for individual programmes IE Power Utilities 2003, before I purchased it I made it clear that I had Power Utilities 2004, ( I should have been advised before purchase took place) otherwise everythings up to date.Build 541
    If this doesn't work then I'm sitting with something that at the moment has no use for me

    Do you have Anti Virus software installed on your PC? If you do then you should try disabling it and then retry the installation. Failing that I would advise you to contact Acronis support for assistance.
