Well it appears the release notes for 5550 are a little incomplete. Mentions desktop power fix but the release includes the changes to detect power state on laptops correctly.
Now I wonder what opportunity I can chase next. I do have one client that gets a catastrophic error on VSS writers caused by an SQL writer.
I just updated Macrium on my laptop and it updated to 5555 where as my desktop is at 5550
But there is no need for English system users to go to 5555 if already updated to 5550, nor is there a path other than a repair install with the newest installer.

Hi folks
Just a query here -- any news of V8 or are we still essentially in "Vaporware State". Macrium IMO is a reasonably good, reliable company but in the current COVID state I'm assuming a lot of companies -- especially smaller ones may well have postponed or put on hold projects of this type.
I do know some people were doing "User trials" but it seems to have gone very quiet on that score.
Cheers

Macrium Software | Reflect 8 InfoMacrium said:
Still no news for a v8 release date, but there's a 20% discount on v7 for Valentines day...
20% off this Valentine's Day and a free upgrade to Reflect 8 as soon as its released.
Macrium Software | Valentines Promotion
Maybe someone can clarify:
will it be cheaper to upgrade from macrium 7 to 8 or
buy now an additional licence with 50 % discount and have a free upgrade to version 8?
Regards,
Uwe
The Valentine Day discount is only 20%.
It will probably be cheaper to upgrade an existing licence but we cannot be certain as terms have yet to be published.
However past experience is that you get a 50% discount if 1 major release behind, but none if 2 major releases i.e. if on V7, you will PROBABLY get 50%. If on V6, no discount.
