I have used the 9.0 version before, and I loved it, because it had the "scan" feature.
I thought allowing the program to update will have better features, and skins, but no!
All the latest updates don't have that scan feature anymore! so pathetic!
I highly recommend this version of this fantastic software Biggrin

I used it before on my windows 7 laptop and it was working perfectly. But now on my new one, which is windows 10, the highlight is not working!
The important feature for students!
