If you are running Windows 7, be aware that you may need to download and install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 or higher. The quickest way to find out is to run the software.

The software update URL has been changed. If you have installed version v8.1.5 or earlier, you need to uninstall that version first, and then download and install current version.

For personal use, iSafeguard is free and does not require registration. However unregistered users have the following limitations:
