Important: To avoid a risk of permanent data loss we strongly suggest that cases produced in previous versions of VideoFOCUS are backed up before attempting to open them in version 6.1. See the Data Compatability section for further details.

Windows 10 users: Windows 10 has a function that detects how frequently a program has been downloaded and shows a message if it has not been downloaded by a significant number of users. With our new versions of VideoFocus you may receive the message "Windows SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting". To proceed with installation just check the box next to "I understand the risk and want to run this app", and click Run anyway.

The version 6.1 documentation

Data Compatability:

Version 6.1 makes substantial changes to the way that media is imported and stored within the application. These changes introduce a risk that cases created with a previous version of VideoFOCUS may not have all data preserved and could therefore suffer permanent data loss once opened in version 6.1. In order to reduce the risk of permanent loss of data we strongly recommend that if it is necessary to use version 6.1 to work on cases created with a previous version of VideoFOCUS an entire copy of the case directory and its contents are made before attempting to open the case in version 6.1.

Note that any previously installed versions of VideoFOCUS will still be installed and available for use after installing version 6.1.
