irobm Posted March 8, 2019 Report Posted March 8, 2019 Windows10 Phone, Enpass version 5.5.7, PC Desktop version 6.0.6 (323) on Windows 10 Lately the synchronization across devices with google drive doesn't work. Although the devices are connected and logged in to the google drive account, when i launch the sync process it says that the synchronization was successful but the new items created in one device do not appear on the other device. I am not sure when this started, possibly after the last updates. I also tried to disconnect and reconnect to the google drive account but it did not solve the problem.
Anshu kumar Posted March 8, 2019 Report Posted March 8, 2019 Hey @irobm, Since Enpass 6 is based on a new architecture, it will only sync with Enpass 6, and not with previous versions. So, to test the sync functionality, you’d need to install the Enpass 6 on your other devices as well. Thanks! 1
irobm Posted March 10, 2019 Author Report Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) How do i update my paid version on my Windows phone as it is not downloadable from Windows store? Edited March 10, 2019 by irobm
rich26 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Posted March 10, 2019 Same architecture, different database structure. No backwards compatibility, forced upgrade, bug ridden application.
blacktop Posted March 21, 2019 Report Posted March 21, 2019 I think this is was a bad update strategy. If I am getting this correctly, I can only install v6,x from the MS Store if I have Win10 (Win7 machines are not able to download as they won't show up on the list of devices). Given that v6.x CAN sync to cloud, but v5.x (which is install-able on Win 7 machines) CANNOT sync to the cloud., then it seems like a big disconnect here. You've just made all of your users who are on Win7/8 (by choice) unable to install a version on their desktops and really be of any use. I run a mixture of Win 7 & Win 10 machines, but my favorite is definitely Win 7 and am going to keep Win 7 around for quite some time on them. I do think this strategy is somewhat flawed and it does have me looking for something better to fit my needs...
Red0210 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) @blacktop, I think there is a misunderstanding. I am running 6.x on both Win 7 and Win 10 Desktops, and they sync back and forth as they should. If you want v6.x on Win 7, download it from the download page, it is called "Traditional Win32 (Windows 7 or later)". There is no need to stay on v5 with Win 7! Of course it is not in the MS Store, because the store is only for Windows 8 onwards. There is no "big disconnect". And the OP is talking about Win 10 PHONE (Mobile), not desktop.

blacktop Posted March 22, 2019 Report Posted March 22, 2019 Hi Red0210, Thank you so much for pointing that out. Lots of egg dripping off my face....I simply didn't scroll down the page far enough to see the download links for the "Traditional Win32". That just makes perfect sense....I was racking my brain trying to figure out why it was only going through the MS Store, and subsequently only available for Win10. Again, thanks so much for pointing that out. I really like Enpass, and glad that I will be able continue to use it on refurbed computers that I pick up that have Win 7 on them.... cheers!
