I have a new desktop computer and have tried to install the above software. it is installed but will not open to use. I have rescued video in 2015 which I now wish to edit but cannot do so. Will new software accept this video? Do I have to re-register old software?

@Mike-Farrant

If the new computer is running Windows 11 or 10, then Rescue your videotapes v4 is not compatible with these versions of Windows, a required Microsoft component is no longer available and cannot be installed.

Assuming that the recordings/exports you made were in the MXV, MPEG, AVI, and Quicktime (?) formats, they should open in any of the Magix video editors.

The current version Video Saver is the new name for Rescue your Video tapes.

Thank you John. It was saved in MXV so hopefully will open in Video saver.
