I purchased Resco Utility Package (including Explorer) in December 2006, so the update to Explorer 2007 (or 6.00) was a free one. This one should be free as well but the reg key from version 6.00 did no longer work for me. I e-mailed customer support so I’m waiting for a reply, but if other people have the same problem I’d love to hear it.

Let me know what they tell you SPM, I think I may have just missed the upgrade window on this one as it is not showing up in the online updater on my device.

Will do. By the way, people seem to quote the wrong list of new features. If you take a look at http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/history.htm you will see that these features were part of v6.00

Clinton Fitch has it right:

The new 6.15 version has added three new but key features:

• RAR decompressions support
• Folder auto-refresh optimized for Windows Mobile 5.0 and 6
• Registry and FTP Favorites

Thanks, SPM. I though the new features list didn’t look right. But that is actually straight from their website. I am betting they never updated it after the last upgrade.

Resco allows for updates within 1 year of purchase. I obtained Explorer 2005 in February, so technically I should be entitled to a free upgrade. Oops, looks like I’ve got to email them too.

Yeah, Breley. You are definately entitled to an upgrade. And I recommend doing so as 2007 is a vast improvement over 2005 (which was also fantastic). I believe that with 2007, they changed the format for their registration codes. At the time, I had to contact them as well. There is a form on their website and it is pretty easy to do.

A topic was created about the registration keys not working. One can follow it here:

Doug, I do own a copy of Resco 2007 v.6.10, but that registration code won’t work with v.6.15. I’ll see if smpwinkel can find anything out on their forum, and I’ll see if I get an email response back from Resco support.

The whole thing is very strange. It is like the update that never was. The info on their website is old, the auto updater is not updated and no registration codes seem to work. Very odd. And frustrating for someone like me who has to do it right away as my year is about to expire.

Doug

Doug, in that case I’d suggest that you just contact Support yourself. If you are currently still allowed a free update, just claim it today and don’t wait until the problem is fixed. If you claim within your “one year”, you shouldn’t be the victim of their disability to provide you with the key and they should solve it for you. At least that’s what 3 years of Law ocllege makes me think!

The issue has been fixed!

Thanks for the link, SPM. I sent an email, but it turns out I am past the deadline by a few month. Th upgrde doesn’t seem worth it for 50%. So, maybe next time )
