Windows 8.1

This is just a quick post to let you know that my LightScribe Software – The LightScribe Toolbox has beet tested and now works with Microsoft’s latest update to Windows, namely Windows 8.1

The LightScribe Toolbox Works With Windows 8.1

If you have been looking for compatible LightScribe software for your new (or updated) Windows machine then this could save the day…

If you are running Windows 7 then try the Free Windows Software you may still want the greater flexibility of the LightScribe Toolbox, but give the free stuff a go first.

All my best…

LightScribe Returns…

At last LightScribe.com has returned to supporting LightScribe with new updates to the 9 month old System Software as well as other new updates.

The System Software is of course the most crucial as up until now Windows 8 was not ‘officially’ supported.

As of 14 March 2013 that has changed… We now have:

LIGHTSCRIBE SYSTEM SOFTWARE – for Windows (8/7/Vista/XP/2K)

With one proviso…

File name	LS_Update_1.18.27.10_.exe

Revision	1.18.27.10
Release Date	March 14, 2013
Notes	Windows 8 OS classic (non-Metro UI)

But this is a welcome update that will calm the hearts of LightScribe enthusiasts who have been anticipating problems migrating to a Windows 8 setup…

Thanks you LightScribe (HP) for staying with us… (Your loyal fans… 🙂 ) and continuing to update this necessary software.

There are new versions (updates) for all the free software :

Free LightScribe Software

Free Windows Software:

I just wanted to post a quick update regarding the Free Windows LightScribe Software now available on the site.

Although FREE to download and use, this software has been developed by, and is the intellectual property of, HP (Hewlett Packard).

I make it available here because as you may know HP has stopped supporting LightScribe and for 8 days (Feb 19-27 2013) they even took down their LightScribe Support website (LightScribe.Com).

Due to this action I have been contacted by many of my customers (of my Premium LightScribe Software Package) to see if I could help.

LightscribeSoftware.org is an answer to these requests, and my desire to assist the LightScribe community by making available all of the FREE software that was originally available in LightScribe.com

LightScribe Support

In addition to the free software downloads (which for the time being are linked to LightScribe.com’s original files) I am going to be adding a LightScribe Support Section in a further attempt to help and assist would be, and current LightScribe users.

I have been active in providing help and advice on LightScribe related issues since 2006, and this site is a way of combining my previous work and experience gained in helping in excess of 10, 000 fellow LightScribe users.

In the meantime please make use of the download and other resources as I add them, and of course, if you want to take your LightScribe Labeling to the next level, be sure to check out my LightScribe Toolbox, premium LightScribe Software Solution.

Thanks for visiting…
