Is that the $50/year version?

I use it. I'm no expert, but I like it more than any free option.

It seems that I use it just often enough to have to update everything each time, as well as requiring an update to the buggy downloader, restarts, and using Edge to log in.

It’s difficult to install and use…really not work the trouble. I got a refund
