RootsMagic 10.0.2

Last week, the genealogy program RootsMagic 10.0.2 was released for both Windows and Mac platforms. This update, like the last one, is mostly about bug fixes and tweaking RootsMagic 10, which came out earlier this summer. The two new features were a key-combination to recover from collapsing columns on indexes and views, and to add an update link when editing a person’s DNA page to update a highlighted relationship.

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).
