Trial and Tribulation

This will be rather a short 'post' for now.

Hello out there. What I'd love to know is..does anyone know the terms and conditions of a 'trial' software? They have put it out there for the 'paid' version, but not for an unpaid one. Have searched high and low in their informal sections, but have found non whatsoever to do with this subject. Please let us know, as I'd love it to be clarified. Thanks so much, Maggie

Hi

The trial versions are valid for 7 days, or 30 days if you extend the trial within the 7 day period.

Functionality is limited in the number of effects, transitions, media formats that can be imported and some features.

Exporting is usually limited to 3 mins of video.

Once you purchase you get the full program with the missing extras and more import export formats.

Hello..

Thank you for your comments, but I couldn't of put my message across very clearly.

I wish to know the terms and conditions for the TRIAL version of Magix Photostory

Deluxe. The truth of the matter IS, I wish to uninstall the software, so if there are

regulations to follow, I'd be very happy to comply with them. Have sent an email via

'contact us' to Magix, with no response.

The TRIAL version terminates on Tuesday the 7th of this month. If no word has been

forwarded my way by that date, I will uninstall what software I have of theirs. I'm not

being nasty, but these programs are not for me. After all, it was on an evaluation trial.

I must say though, it is very good of Magix to grant customers the opportunity to view

their products on a free testing basis.

Thank you for your time..

Regards..

Maggie.

There are no regulations to follow when uninstalling the trial versions of Magix products but be aware that the standard Uninstaller may leave some files or folders on your computer. They are not in any way "dangerous" but if you wish to ensure you remove everything I would recommend using Revo Uninstaller, or a similar app. There is a free version of it available to download.
