New Macrium Reflect Updates [2]  

Steve C said:

Only the top level menu fonts have improved and the rest remain tiny. Hope this is fixed soon.

A bit by bit improvement, still have to watch my nose when trying to read the rest.

Indeed. Two years ago I bought varifocals optimised for reading and screen use at shorter distances. These are fine.

Hmmm, Ghot, it looks like that update is to v.7.3.5928, not 8.0? Or, maybe another mess-up . . .

I looked for an update from 7.3.5925 to 7.3.5928, and it wasn't offered to me.

Which makes me wonder just what the heck is going on!

Morning Wynona, its only for version 8.0 as its only version I'm running on both rigs, and I got the same update this morning.

Typo in the release notes, which is now corrected.

When on version 8.0.5928, which you can see from the lower of the two pics, and you click Help > Release Notes ... that's what you get.
When you first start the update from 5903 to 5928, you get the screen shot that @CountMike posted.





/edit Looks like they just fixed it....

NOW I see this when I click on Help > Release Notes.....

Macrium Reflect Patch Details






Paramount Software UK (the folks that make MR), must have like 3 guys working there, and no coffee pot.

Just upgraded my license to v8 (with the 50% discount offered) and installed v8.0.5928.
Update my default backup definition file, with the updated image name structure and I also changed the comment in a v7 made image. (Cool features, both of them!)
Updated the Rescue Media with the new v8 and everything seems OK.

The only flaw I saw so far...
Although the do mention it in the Release Notes of 5928, they should do something with the fonts. They are really tiny!

Worked for me. They said they fixed the fonts. If they did... it's only on the left and top.

When I posted the update it was during the process, I did not have time as Win 10 auto updated it. I was not ready or expecting it. Thanks GHOT.

I got the version 8 free version from MajorGeeks, and it only offers an update to version 7 which fails

Fixed it.

I uninstalled version 8 from MajorGeeks, opting to keep my definitions and logs, then reinstalled version 7.
Now I'll just wait for the official MR8 free version.

When version 8 gets updates, please copy & paste the change of post the link(better) as I don't have it yet.
For version 7, I'm not going to post a changelog in the first post, it'll be enough in the thread to have it.

Bug fixes and Improvements v7.3.5925 - 24th May 2021

Image Restore
We've resolved a rare timing problem where a network connection delay caused authentication immediately after an automated image restore had already started.
If this issue affects you then please create fresh Windows PE rescue media after updating.

Curious...

Are all these Version 8 comments being fed back to Paramount (Macrium) directly or does Paramount know of this forum and looking at them here?

I send all my concerns directly to the vendor for their action.

I did the same this morning, so back on free v7 on my old lappy.
