Topic: Web Plus 8 and Window's 11

Hi,   Can anyone help me with my issue.

I have used Web Plus 8 for a long time now and don't want to move on,  However all the files i have saved over the years in windows 10 i can't open now because i am on window's 11

I don't get any error codes, but just a blank screen when i go to open a file (from a saved project).

Is this because i am on windows 11 or something else?

The only other thing i have found is that when i open the program - not all the time, but some of the time it asks me to register but of course i can't do that - as i don't have the registration key only the product key.

However when i click on my icon to open up the  program it says that it is registered to me

I hope someone can help me

Thank you

Christine

Welcome, Christine, and thanks for joining my merry little band!

I have no experience of Windows 11, so I’ll leave it to others to offer advice about that, but the registration nag screen is easily dealt with. Simply enter the Universal Registration Key 881887 to make it go away.

I moved to Win 11 late last year. I got rid of a lot of files as I am now retired, but have found one of my old website details tucked away. I still have WebPlus x8.

If I try to open the file from where I have saved it, like you I just get the blank screen.

However, if I then go, within WebPlus to the top left - File > Open > browse to the files, they do come up. I also get the (obvious) warning that a lot of the images I was linked to are no longer available, so would have to find them again, but both the websites I had will still come up this way.

I hope that might be a help?
