Thanks, Dan. However, after creating a KeepandShare account in order to download the file, I got the following error message:
“You (account name ‘keepshare2013’) have just tried to access a document in another KeepandShare account ‘d3252’. To view it you need to ask the owner of the other account to set the Sharing controls to give your KeepandShare user name ‘keepshare2013’ rights to view the document.”
So, I guess you have to manually share it with each person? For me, the username to share it with would be keepshare2013. Or you could just upload to Dropbox or Google Drive and post a sharing link.
Thanks again—- useful for viewing some old files.

They have a setting allowing you to shAre the file publicly - so anyone can access. I thought I had checked that option but I think I must not have saved the settings. It should allow you access now - please let me know if it doesn’t and I will try a different file sharing service. Maybe this will be a good opportunity to try Mega.

Wow - I was looking through old posts to try to find a link to a working copy of ADM, and I stumbled across my post below from 2007, accurately predicting the future of 2015!
Except that I got the name of the O/S wrong (it’s not Windows2015), and I am pretty sure I was wrong about ADM not running on the 2015 version of Windows. I think it ran fine the last time I did this, on Windows 7, so I assume it will also work on Windows 10 if I can find a copy.
So, reminiscing aside: does anybody know where to find a copy of ADM—even the 30-day trial version—so I can open one of my old outlines?

I don’t have access to Windows at this moment, but I see that a version of admsetup.exe is still available for download here:

Might that work?
