Thanks. That's more or less what I thought but makes me feel more confident I understand what's going on. I'm not a power user so I think my existing backup regime is probably adequate if I add in a regular run of the plug-in.

I've followed a number of threads on the forum and am left a bit confused - can someone help me? I'm running v6.2 under Windows 10.

I'm not sure that I want to do that - what I'm after is an app that will display my own gedcom file offline, in a usable form, not least as it's not always possible to ge...

It's 6 months since the last post on this thread so I'm wondering if the situation has changed. I've just got my first Android tablet and was hoping to be able to load my gedcom file into an app that would let me navigate a family tree and see all my data - I'm happy to do any editing of my master f...
