  1. I have had the experience of registering my Roots Magic software with an e-mail address associated with my ISP and then changed my ISP between that time and the time I have lost my registration key. How should I proceed if that happens again? Is there a way for me to provide my new e-mail address during the recovery process? Maybe by answering some security questions?

    Reply: You would need to call or email support@rootsmagic.com the old email address and your new one, so we can update it in the online registration database. Keys requested in the future it will be sent to the new correct email address.

  2. Your service has been a life saver between having to upgrade windows and losing all of my favorite programs and then the hard drive crashing and having to replace the computer 6 months later being able to retrieve the registration key in the first instance and writing it in my day planner “just in case” dissolved a lot of stress.
