I hate smartFTP forced upgrade scheme

What's the deal with forcing people to use the new buggier version when the older version work's just fine. I liked v2.0 the best the newer v2.5 is a pain. I had everything setup nice and v2.5 screwed it up.

The old version launched quicker as well.

You get what you pay for.

Do they have forums? Complain about it there, and maybe they'll rectify these fresh bugs.


That said, I don't like forced upgrades either. I don't know why it's done, maybe to make it easier to support their software? Severely obsessive programmers who don't want old versions to exist after the new version is done?

i didnt really mind it untill it wouldent open anymore, then i went to filezilla, however for whatever reason filezilla just stopped working with my website it wouldent let me in, so i went bak to smart, and click Ok every time i open it

cant really complain it is free

Ya well I have to upgrade it every 180 days
Thats the only annoying part about SFTP and I am lazy to switch to other clients
