30-Day Trial Version of RKS FaxTry our software program free for 30 days. Download the program installation file from one of the download links above, and then run the file to install the program. The installation program will place a program icon on your desktop. To start the program, simply click the program icon. Try the program free for 30 days. The trial version and the registered version are the same program. The only difference is that in trial mode, the main program features (i.e. faxing) will be disabled after 30 days if you haven't purchased the program by then. Additional non-critical features may be disabled during the trial period. When you purchase the program, you are purchasing a User Name and Serial Number to license the program and to remove the 30-day trial mode limitation from the program. Your User Name and Serial Number will be emailed to you once your payment has been processed, and you may then use this to unlock the Trial Version for permanent use - you do not have to download anything else.
Updating/upgrading for Existing RKS Fax UsersTo upgrade or replace your registered copy, you need to download and install the latest Trial Version of the program from one of the download links above. The Trial Version installation program contains everything needed to update or replace your registered copy of the program. Please review and follow these steps: 1. If upgrading, first determine if there is a newer version. The current version is always shown on the RKS Fax version history page. To determine the version of the program you are now using, click Help About on the program's main menu. 2. In general we do not recommend upgrading any of our products unless you have particular problems which have been addressed, or you need specific features which have been added. We like to follow the "If it works, don't fix it" rule. 3. Before any major action such as an upgrade, we suggest that you BACKUP the complete directory of the program you are upgrading. Mistakes happen, and only a complete backup can provide complete assurance that recovery can be done if needed. 4. Once you have downloaded the correct Trial Version from the download links above, continue with either step #5 or #6 below. 5. If you are updating the version currently on your computer, simply install the trial version over top of your existing registered version (same drive, directory, etc). It will automatically recognize the registration and will then become a fully registered version. Data and files will remain intact. 6. If you are moving to a NEW COMPUTER or REINSTALLING after a hard drive crash (i.e. there is no existing copy of RKS Fax on the computer), then simply install the trial version on the new computer. Then follow the directions previously sent in the email containing your "registered name and serial number", using the same registration information (serial number etc) as previously sent. If you have lost your original registration information (name and serial number) please use our Serial Number Lookup Request form. RKS Fax is not MightyFax, and it is not Just The Fax. RKS Fax is a completely new program written specifically for Windows Vista or XP.
