Clooz 4.5.0

Clooz 4.5.0 was released earlier today by Ancestral Systems, LLC., yesterday, and I would say this is a major update to the Windows-based genealogy research tool.

While there are several bug fixes, including for those doing partial imports from other Clooz database files, there are some new additions – one for manually ordering appearances of Events and Families in the side panel, and the other a program option to set the default for how merged records are displayed after the merger is finished.

Clooz interacts directly with four genealogy programs (Ancestral Quest, Family Historian, Legacy Family Tree, RootsMagic) and with all other genealogy programs through GEDCOM files. It manages and organizes your genealogical documents/records to help you determine where else to look for information.

Current users can “Check for Updates” from within Clooz, and interested genealogists can download a demo here: https://shop.clooz.com (Windows 8 – Windows 11 required).
