Upgrade from Previous Versions
If you already possess a previous version of Password Depot, you can upgrade it to the latest version.
- First, you will have to order the relevant upgrade for your version. The purchase of upgrades is less expensive than purchasing new full versions.
- Having completed your order, you will receive a license key (an unlock code) for the current version.
- Now install the current version. If your old version is no longer installed on your PC, you do not need to re-install it. If it is already/still installed, however, you do not need to uninstall it. Yet, we would recommend a deinstallation as this enables a better overview and, in case of deinstallation, installing Password Depot`s current version again.
- Open the newly downloaded current version.
- Go to Help -→ Unlock and select Step 2 - Unlock Password Depot.
- Follow the wizard's instructions. Afterwards, enter the license key (unlock code) you received when ordering the license.
- Finally, you can open your database from the old version in the new, activated version: In the main menu, go to Database → Database Manager, click Browse... (bottom) and select the path to your file. By default, your file is to be found at "My documents" (XP) or "Documents" (Vista, Windows 7, 8 and 10). Confirm your choice with Open and authenticate yourself for the file by using your master password and/or key file.
NOTE: For very old versions, it may be helpful to open your database in the old version first, followed by conversion to XML. Subsequently, create a new, empty database in Password Depot 14 and import your XML file.
