Re: How do I upgrade from 10 to 11?

I have suggestion • manually delete (or archive) any *Slimjet*.exe files in your download folder • manually uninstall Slimjet from your system (look for both a 32 and 64 bit installation and remove both) • manually install using this link: Win 32 Slimjet Installation File Note: the developer recomme...

Re: A plea from a die-hard Windows XP user

They have just recently announced the decision to use version 10 as the XP fork. Give them some reasonable time to square away the issues with updating :D
