I had a technician transfer my records to my new computer with Windows 8 installed on it. He said he was unable to transfer my files in Family Tree Maker 11 to Windows 8. What do I do now?

Hi madelyn evan,
Version 6 Family Tree Maker is designed to be used with Windows 95 / 98 , therefore in order to use it in Vista you must run your program using Compatinity Mode --> Install your software--> Go to your Desktop --> Right click on the program icon--> properties-->Compatibility--> select one of the versions above
I hope this helps. If so, please take a moment to accept and rate my solution accordingly

The files can be transferred as long as you know where they are saved. As to opening them, just ensure that the version that you have is for Vista and you should be OK.

Did you find a solution? I have the same problem using Windows Vista Home.

It is not with Home Premium. You need to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional
