PowerArchiver 2011 Toolbox with BitDefender! - Page 2

There can be only one download!

It's the license code that determines the flavour.
So the Release Candidate link on the "normal" download page is the trial version, if you want to think of it like that.

When going to upgrade to Toobox, the page that summarizes what's in the cart has this wording:

Quote:

Personal/Small Business License - Free lifetime upgrades, applied automatically to all orders of 5 or less licenses. Applicable to home or small business users with license totals of 5 or less.

I think it should be made clear that this doesn't apply to the BitDefender portion (I assume that BitDefender will require an annual fee).

The same should go on http://www.powerarchiver.com/order/ when PA 2011 gets past RC stage, of course.

Also if purchased are you given a direct download link as I don't see one currently on the accounts or download page.

Thanks.

links come in the registration email you get... We have English and German BitDefender IS 2011.

Hi, I was thinking more of the BitDefender portion, as I don't think that is not included in the download page, within the 9,164 KB file.

I know that the file on the downloads page goes between Standard and Pro. I have now tested it on my tst pc without a Serial Number thus in Trial mode, it gives all the features of the pro version but noting to do with the BitDefender portion of Toolbox.

To therefore test BitDefender is it a case of going to the BitDefender site downloading the trial of internet security from there, and then if liking it and wanting to go down the powerarchiver toolbox route, (thereafter purchase of toolbox) entering in the licence code for PowerArchiver Toolbox into that trial of BitDefender?

Don't get me wrong I see where the integration seems to be going but I don't see the BitDefender aspects currently intregarated with the product, such as they are with for Example: Acronis Backup & Security http://www.acronis.co.uk/homecomputi...ckup-security/ Which integrates BitDefender directly within the product, and one single download.

Not having a dig etc, just seeking some clarification as the how it integrates with PowerArchiver 2011 or if it (BitDefender) in it's entirety is a standalone application non intregarated into PowerArchiver 2011 of which the PowerArchiver Toolbox Licence Code actives BitDefender.

Any clarification greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Have the emails been sent yet?
If so I've not received one. I even looked in my spam folder in case it had been mistakenly flagged as spam and it's not there either.

haven't seen spwolf around for several hours 'Lux'...nothing in my email all day but I expect it there when I surface tomorrow...

OK. Yes, they are separate products.
To trial PowerArchiver, download from this site (as you have done).
To trial Bitdefender, as you say, you can download from their site - the 2011 Internet Security version.

When/if you're happy, then purchase the appropriate PowerArchiver license.

If you go for the Toolbox (including Bitdefender) then

So I guess you would have to unistall the trail of Bitdefender and use the provided link to install the licensed version.

pjb · #39 03-09-2011, 06:59 AM

@ TBGBe, Thanks for the clarification, that is as I expected. I did try bitdefender when beta testing one of the acronis products, as that was bundled with it. I have now downloaded bitdefender on my test machine to see how it fares

Thanks.

I'm not convinced....sounds 'welsh' to me

TBGBe · #44 03-09-2011, 07:24 AM

Maybe because you're an Aussie??

moles42 · #45 03-09-2011, 07:25 AM

lol...I'm not though Terry....I'm from the UK...

@Luxor @Moles42 @TBGBe

I didn't receive an Email either, but you can log into "My Account" and you will have the upgrade options and the prices there (including discounts, of cause).

@Spwolf

Is the Bitdefender version downloaded with the PA-downloader any different from the BitDefender downloaded directly at their site?

It is version customized for us, so it is different to that extent (it shows our support info and downloads updates from our servers).

Also, our version is one from few weeks ago, they had rather large update.

Just "playing" with spwolf, as he said there would be emails.

Oh I dunno about that.
I was promised an email and I'm feeling very neglected not getting one.

Luxor · #52 03-09-2011, 12:21 PM

spwolf I have a question.
When I go to my account and click on PowerArchiver Toolbox International - 1 license pack w/ BitDefender then click on upgrade, it shows quantity 2. I know I can change it to 1 but I'm curious why it defaults to 2.

you probably had 2 orders previously which can be upgraded to Toolbox?

That makes sense, that's what it will be.
PA2001 & PA2009 are my purchased licenses so that would account for that.

I was using the free version before then.

When would that be? 1998/99

Why can't new customers purchase the Toolbox edition from the Buy Now link on the website at the price shown on the nag screen?
