Error message reads
"Consistency check failed for "C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\Resources\Registered.dat
Invalid checksum"

I have been running the donation edition for ages then this came up today.

I don't want uninstall/reinstall in case I lose my list of file matches.

Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance.

Reinstall. As long as you didn't save your configurations in the program directory, the configurations will remain. You may have to re-open them at the worst. Make a backup of them if you're concerned

Will it recognise my donation if I reinstall?

As long as you reinstall your donation edition, yes

Ok, thanks. But where do I find a donation edition file? All I can see on the website is the standard file.

You were sent a unique link to your donation edition download page, you have to use that
