U3 Windows 7 update now available!

Uh, not quite.  Might be time to pull down this whole thread.

I had a very odd experience with this software (pre-update; version 1,6,1,2).  In or out of Compatibility Mode, the software started-up really fast, then disappeared from sight on my i-7 Win7 64 system.  The U-3 icon in my task bar then VANISHED as soon as I flew my mouse over it.  Didn’t even have to click.

  •  I prepared for this update by removing encryption from the drive; also tried downloading and installng in an XP SP 2 environment;

  • However, the hyperlink in this thread for downloading the Win 7 64 software update (below) is now VOID.

  • I believe Sandisk has “surrendered” on this matter, apparently no longer offers the update, and apparently no longer holds out hope that U3 software may be executed within the Win 7 64-bit operating system.

A shame, because this was simple, intuitive, and elegant stoftware – even if the encryption was “whole-drive” rather than file-by file.  Now the only way I can keep U-3 running and retain encryption is in a “no longer supported” O.S…

Blech.
