Not a clue! Version 3 works. I´ve tried about everything. Just wont work. A bit strange when the older version works. Only problem is that the registration will not work in version 3.

Exact same error message here - on Windows 7. I just upgraded to the new version of 4.4.

Every time I try to start "Backup4all Professional", I am greeted with the "Cannot locate protected program data", and can just click "ok", and nothing happens - backup4all is not started.

I have tried deleting directories and remove registry keys/values relating to softland, but to no avail.

Regards,

Jørgen

Solved (not tested): Answere from the support.

"We will fix that problem.
Until that, please uninstall the current version of Backup4all and download the previous version (4.4.189) from our website:
http://www.backup4all.com/download/setup/b4a-pro.exe"
