I paid and downloaded the upgrade version and then find that the sn they gave me for the Win 7 versions is now "not recognized" and I can't upgrade Eben though it worked as the sn for the version I used for two years on my Win 7 box!! I even have it on the acronis backups made before the upgrade!
Their support email was no help - just polite nonsense and repetitive. I am canceling the purchase on my credit card since its unusable.
There have been mutterings on other threads that the latest versions are also not reliable. I have had no prior problems with acronis - and fortunately never needed it beyond cloning to new disks - but am now turned off and will go elsewhere.
