The process cannot access the file because it is being used
Roboform forum software#
I live in a extremely rural area, trying to convince a class action lawyer to look into this when I live in a village that has more dogs than people is not going to happen.The process cannot access the file because it is being used - ViceVersa Forum: File Synchronization, Windows Backup Software Siber Systems should not be allowed to get away with advertising “lifetime” upgrades and then turn around and charge. If enough people are interested I do believe a class action should be started over this. They need to set up a grandfather clause for all of us that bought RoboForm when it was advertised as “free lifetime upgrades” and anyone that buys it after that has to pay for upgrades. If they want to start charging for upgrades then that is their prerogative to do so. Otherwise, what they are doing is called “Bait and Switch” and will have a hard time attempting to convince a Court of Law that even though they advertised “free lifetime upgrades” that they have a right to start charging those of us that have bought their product with the Lifetime conditions. This is a US based company and as such is accountable for keeping their word as advertised. That I would never have to pay for upgrades! But now they are telling me I have to pay? When I bought my RoboForm, as many of you did, they were advertising that it was a lifetime deal.
Roboform forum upgrade#
When I did finally make it back and I tried to reinstall RoboForm I was told that I could chose to stay with ver6 or pay to upgrade to ver7. I totally agree! I was unable to use my computer to get to the internet for a long time. The creators of Roboform should be sued for their unethical behavior. This is a breach of contract, and just plain slime-bag ethics. Not only is it “rude and bad business”, in my view, it is borderline criminal fraud. They fully disclosed all the details here: The way they handled it is a text book example of how you should deal with security. No “pay us to update” BS.īTW, LastPass only had one breach since its inception.
It also works with Firefox 5 almost right out of the gate. So it does exactly what you want, encrypted and stored locally with cloud sync to all your devices.īest of all, it is free, no strings attached. The encryption is done 100% locally on your machine. The folks at LastPass cannot recover it nor your data. In otherwords you lose the key and you lose the data to your LastPass database. The encryption key never leaves your computer, is never stored at LastPass. LastPass cannot even decrypt it themselves. Your passwords never leave your computer unencrypted when sent to LastPass. If LastPass is breached, the only thing the attacker will get is AES-256 encrypted blobs of data.
Roboform forum password#
So, if there is a way to continue using Roboform V6 (and benefit from the improvements of the latest version of Firefox) without paying this company another penny, I’m in favor of spreading the word.Īs for dumping Roboform altogether, I’ve seen reports in early May of security breaches for LastPass Password Manager, which stores the info remotely (“in the cloud”), so I prefer to keep my passwords encrypted AND stored locally, as I believe is the case for Roboform V6.
Roboform forum license#
They may have a point, but the way Siber Systems went about marketing the upgrade to previous license holders was deceptive at least. I have read some posts that side with Siber System’s decision to end support of Roboform V6 for Firefox V4 and later, arguing that they should not be compelled to honor “lifetime” licenses for all future releases of the browser.
Like many forum members, I too was surprised and disappointed when I discovered what appeared to be a free upgrade to the latest Roboform for paid users of V6 turned out to be 30 day TRIALWARE.
I’ve followed your instructions, and It works even for the newest Firefox (V5). Thanks mudsharky (see post May 09) for your tip on getting Roboform V6.10 to work with the latest version of Firefox.
