Users of version 4 can now download a free upgrade to 4.1. This upgrade will not work if you do not have version 4. Users of earlier versions who wish to upgrade should see the Buy Now page for upgrade options. See also Understanding Family Historian Version Numbers for more information about version numbers.
To learn more about the new features and improvements in 4.1, see What’s New in 4.1.
To download the upgrade to your PC, click the Download button below. The download file is ‘upgrade_fh4_to_4.1.3.exe’ (16.6 MB). Save this file to your hard disk and then run it. We recommend saving the file to ‘Desktop’. After saving, the installation program will appear on the screen desktop and you can double-click it to run it.
Some users may be required to re-enter their licence key details for version 4 as part of the upgrade. If you are asked to supply a licence name as well as a key, leave the former box blank if you don’t have one. You will have one if you bought version 4 as a download, or as a download upgrade, but not otherwise. You may be asked to restart your computer after the upgrade.
If you experience problems Download From Mirror site. For patches for versions prior to V4 please see the Downloads Archive.
