Good advice, Marian. I too have had no problem with the new game manager. On the other hand, I've had problems in recent months with some of the newer games running smoothly. I've contacted Tech Support in each instance and have always been given the option to receive a coupon code for credit. Unfortunately, with the variety of internet providers, gaming platforms, and PC's in today's market, there's bound to be cases where it's difficult or impossible to track down why someone is having a problem.
I hope that those who are having difficulties since the new Game Manager was introduced are soon able to "get back in the game".

After reading about so many problems I have to say I'm fortunate not to have had any problems at all with the new GM. It recently updated again when dld Hidden Expedition and no issues with the newest version either. As far as buying through the GM, I always sign into GB and buy through the link provided above for BFG at the top in support of GB. I like coming here and always getting good info from great people. That's my 2 cents. ![wave wave](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/wave.gif) ~ Carol

I couldn't find a version number on my GM. I think the last update was March this year.

Thanks Marian...I know where to go to get the matter sorted, as I've been there before and always been impressed and grateful with the response, but I suppose my point is that it shouldn't be so complicated if problems occur...well, problems shouldn't occur. Didn't intend this whinge to be hijacked to probs with game manager but apparently it has. PS If you need to kill a thriving thread, call myopia.....hours later after my response and no replies. I rest my case (eww the power!)

Well, I am happy to say that the new GM has solved my previous download problems, although I still do find my downloads much slower. But I dont mind that - just so long as they download eventually!

Marian, bless your heart for being so caring and empathetic. MaG should treasure you, because you are priceless.

I've got that taken care of, Mr. Lipid. Everytime I visit sites like Big Fish I just run CCleaner and remove all the cookies I don't want. Take that, Criteo! <g>
Unfortunately, Marian, there seem to be other "improvements" in the works (no clue as to what) and I gather they have no plans to reduce the size of this monster GM. Or to remove the ads.
