Bit of a mess re the getting & first run. Download flagged by Chrome as dangerous and blocked it. I retried and choose the do it anyway. Ran from download section for installation C:. Ok then I run it and initial prompt saying in light color text that you can but a lifetime version with full updates. Screw that. Run the finished install. Get a box saying need ScanSoft PaperPort 11 that is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the SS PP 11 & click OK.
Now I need a specific file, or full program. And then what? Prob launch and try a part of the full program and get the joy of experiencing yet another barf. furgitboutit Thanks for the offer but too much wasted time. yrmv
Just tried to dl a PP 11 “free” setup. Twice that download was removed by Chrome & Edge. geez
Found an old Brothers printer DVD Windows 7 and inserting it the 1AVCenter took long time but seemed to find what it wanted w/o me being offered to browse for the PaperPort folder on DVD. Not easy to find online since files either get blocked or download from CNet such but then get scratched by the browser (s). Search best thing is from users who have posted a free version of PP in ISO format.
After all this it does run and says 1AVCenter Licensed to Registered User. I used the dl from here. Maybe the one from forwarded email works better? It did arrive at my Yahoo email ok. Also says the reg is built-in.
