Today's success:
- I found a 2018 blog post which directed me to...
- software on Github last updated in 2015, which let me open on Linux...
- a .BKF backup file created on Windows XP in 2007, so that I could extract...
- an installer for software written in 2004...
- which runs perfectly on Windows 10 in 2024, using its 20-year-old registration key.
All of which was possible because, last month, I organized all our ancient backups from computers going back to our first Apple II, although I "knew" I would never need them.
It's nice when things work right. :-)
