I have upgraded to the latest version of Dell DataSafe. I bought my Studio PC in April but have only just started to try and use the free DataSafe facility that came ready installed. When I try to operate the DataSafe function I get a message saying 'DataSafe Online has stopped working ...' and the programme stops. I've tried checking firewall settings - but I may not have done this properly. I'm running Windows Vista operating system. Any suggestions? Neil
DataSafe worked until I upgraded to the latest version this December. Now datasafe runs the gather information portion but crashes as soon as it begins the backup portion with a "datasafeonline has stopped working" message. Running the install again to repair or iunnstalling and reinstalling have not helped.
Any Idea where I can get the previous version?
I added pictures of each error meessage here if they help anyone tryin got get support
I recently upgraded to the latest version also. Now I am getting Runtime errors saying the "Application has requested Runtime to terminate the program in an unusual manner". I have not completed a backup in three weeks. My e-mail to Dell support has gone unnoticed. Anyone have any suggestions? Pat12345
I happened to have a software contract for my computer and called the number. The rep logged on to my computer remotely and went into my Control Panel - went into User Accounts - Turned User Account Control to OFF.
It backed up (apparently). I have it scheduled to automatically backup every morning so time will tell if that did the trick. I don't share my computer with anyone so it was no big deal for me to leave the User Account Control off as otherwise, I was told I would have to physically turn it on and off every day when I want to back up my files.

Try downloading/reinstalling DataSafe Neil?
