Read only access
I have used FHsince version 3 and frequently sent copies of trees to relatives etc who could then download a read only version of FH. This saved f.....g about producing PDF copies which they could open. This now seems to have vanished. Why?

Re: Read only access
Could you please update your User Control Panel > Profile > Family Historian Version on this FHUG website so it appears in the panel on the right. [I see you have now done this. Thanks.]
The FH V3 Read Only version is still available from the FH website Download Archive, and from the FHUG Downloads and Links > Freeware.
However, I suspect you will have to export the FH V6 Gedcom in ANSI format to be acceptable to V3 RO version, because I think it will not accept the UTF-16 Unicode format used by FH V6. The best option is to use the Export Gedcom File Plugin and use the Family Historian 5 export mode in ANSI code.

Thank you for the help. Just a demented amateur at this.
