DataFlex 2021 Updated Release Published - Action Recommended

DataFlex 2021 build 20.0.7 is an updated release that contains bug fixes for important issues reported by the development community. Most of these issues were new to DataFlex 2021. The updates are available as complete new installations (including the Studio, Server and Client installations, see links below) and replace the previous release builds (20.0.6).

Check out the DataFlex 2021 Update Release Notes for complete information on the changes.

We have removed the prior published build from the Download center and all users of build 20.0.6 (or any prerelease builds) should update to 20.0.7 as soon as possible.

Installing the Update

To install the update one first needs to uninstall any currently installed versions of DataFlex 2021. A reboot is recommended between uninstallation and installation of the new DataFlex 2021 build. Note that installing DataFlex 2021 after uninstalling a prior build will automatically reinstall the evaluation license and you will need to register your DataFlex Studio license after the installation completes. You can register from within the Studio (under Help | License Registration…) or using “Register DataFlex” on the “DataFlex 2021 – 20.0” Start Menu.
