| Posted: December 9, 2022 8:06 PM | | | | Being very nervous about losing my large DVD Profiler database, I finally figured out how to install Windows 10 on my non-supported iMac using Bootcamp. I then bought the PC version of DVD Profiler. This should allow me to export my collection in order to transfer it to another app when, not if, DVD Profiler goes belly up. So far so good. I'll update this post as things progress. |

Losing the online database would be a bit of an inconvenience, but you wouldn't lose your local database. Just make sure you take regular backups (and not just uploading your collection). | | | My freeware tools for DVD Profiler users. Gunnar | | | Last edited: December 9, 2022 9:23 PM by GSyren |
