    From John McCulloch@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 2 13:18:43 2023
    I used to be able to log into !Store, but for some months now it does not seem to be functioning. It constantly reports unable to connect with server. I have tried the advice on the site, but with negative result.
    Is it still functioning and if so has the web address changed. I tried to download from the usual site, but the version is dated 2013, the version I have was from 2020.
    Thanks in anticipation .....

    There's a "Forgotten password" button on the log-in screen if your
    credentials don't work.

    It's still in the usual place, as far as I know. Have you checked that the system it's on has internet access at all?

    I tried to download from the usual site, but the version is dated 2013,
    the version I have was from 2020.

    The version on the site hasn't been updated for a long time: the first thing that it does on starting up is fetch the current version and update itself.
