Access to programs after subscription ends
Wednesday, December 22, 2010 by BlueDev | Discussion: Object Desktop
My Object Desktop subscription recently expired. On an attempt to install a program I am now informed that I no longer have access and my registration is not valid. I was thought that with the expiration of the subscription I still had access to all programs that were part of Object Desktop, but not new updates. Is that not correct. Is it that I only have access to what was already downloaded when the sub expired? Clarification would be nice, as it is a little disappointing that I cannot use some of these just because I did not have them downloaded when the sub expired.

If you archived/backed up your programs through Impulse you should have access to them. The ones on your computer should still be working.
[email protected] might give you links to the last versions of the software you were entitled to however they might not. I don't know the current/latest policy, but do remember reading they might not.
Good luck, BlueDev. I do see you're a current customer (4), so they might.
I'd suggest reupping your subscription, though.
