The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Or install Office 2016 or 2013 to use the newer extension and be backward compatible. I doubt MS could take it off the site someone will download the files and have it somewhere else. In this digital age nothing goes gone.

    True. actually I'm betting all they do is take the link down and change the page. I've been able to get some MS files they took down by using the wayback machine. :vbsmile:

    You'll get the updates mostly likely from them from some time but they will turn it off it's not if but when.
