Hi Nick10. I've installed the new v9.1 and there seem to be some major discrepancies with your release notes and what i see on my installed version.

Note 5 talks about improvement to activation process. In my installation on my W7x64 system the installation and activation occured exactly as it always has. I noticed no change to this process as is described. I entered my product key during install. At the end it prompted to reboot. At reboot it installed the console. Continued to boot. Configuration window appeared and i made my usual changes. Right clicked on icon and selected "About". Clicked on "Activate". Selected to activate over the internet. Prompted me to reboot. Subconsole said thanks for activating. Continued to boot. Rollback now activated. Prey tell.....whats the improvement??? Like i said, exactly the same as its always been.

Note 8. Mine is still there??

Note 9,10 &11. I cant find this setup.ini configuration anywhere. Perhaps i dont understand its purpose or usage. Please explain.

Note 12. If by disabling you mean the console window is not resizable then this has always been the case much to my dismay. I have made numerous complaints about the console window being fixed in size. This has always baffled me as to why it is so difficult to have the console window scalable. This has been the case since at least v7 when i first started using Rollback.

In light of all these discrepancies, I'm wondering if i have the wrong version but a redownload and quick comparison proved otherwise.
