TiVo Desktop 2.6.1 released

by Brad Linder, posted Apr 10th 2008 10:31AM

TiVo Desktop Hot on the heels of TiVo Desktop 2.6, Tivo has released TiVo Desktop 2.6.1 for Windows. The new version includes a number of bug fixes as well as all the features originally included in version 2.6.

The main reason to upgrades is that TiVo Desktop 2.6.1includes a new Windows Certificate. The old one will expire soon so upgrading isn't really optional. But you'll want to upgrade anyway because the new version includes improved recovery from interrupted transfers between your PC and set top box.

If you're running Windows 2000 or an older operating system, you'll need to use a different certificate updater.

Does the current version run on Windows2000?

I stopped updating a while ago, when one version refused to install on Wndows2000 (after making me uninstall the version that I had, leaving me with nothing...)

If you paid the 24.95 or what ever it was for the full version can you use your previous unlock code on 2.6.1? If not I'm going to be pissed. I just bought it last week.

GigG,
Yes, buying a license for the Plus version allows you future upgrades without buying a new license.
