Earlier today, RootsMagic 10.0.1 was released for both Windows and Mac platforms. This is the first update to RootsMagic 10 since it was launched on 19 June 2024. As you might expect of the first update to this major release in the RootsMagic genealogy software lineup, the update (which is a large one) is mostly bug fixes, but there are a few new additions.
Working with facts while editing a person has been improved, color coding has been improved, and DNA & Health Notes are now searched in “Find Everywhere”. For those working with DNA/genetic genealogy, there are several improvements/fixes.
It can be downloaded in 32-bit and 64-bit versions for Windows, along with Mac at the link below, or if you have a copy of RootsMagic 10 installed, you can update from within the program (at the ‘Home’ screen, check the lower right for the update panel).
