Amiga Forever still has a lot wrong with it, like the obfuscated adf images and encrypted ROM files.
It's just another example of how piracy can get you a more usable product than paying can.
Cloanto should know better.

There are plenty of perfectly functional PCs that don't meet Windows 7's hardware requirements, especially when it comes to RAM.

And what are "obfuscated adf images" please?


I can't even tell what game is what from the filenames that they assigned.
It's retarded, and so is encrypting the ROMs that can be found on google in seconds.  If you pay for access to the ROMs, you have to jump through hoops to do anything with them.  If you just grab them from the net,you don't.
I don't like paying for inconvenience.

I can easily tell what the game is based on those names.
(Older version didn't do that or ???)


Apparently.  I think the last version I tried was 2008.
After that, I just went with generic winuae and never looked back.
