Why is it important to keep the Duplicate Remover version up to date?

Because of outside factors like Microsoft Outlook or Windows version changes, Duplicate Remover needs to change as well to keep up. With each new Duplicate Remover version, new functionalities can be introduced, bugs fixed, and old functionalities discontinued. Most importantly - we do not provide support for old releases as part of our general policy. 

A new version of Duplicate Remover is released every few months unless there is urgency and a need for a patched build.
