I'm currently trying to convince the right people to simply make the iMacros File Access module available as a free download and not require any license. This is the module responsible for providing the full functionality to iMacros for Chrome, including disk access. However, I can't make any promises or even speculate on how long it might take to come to pass, if ever.
Well I tried as best I could, but unfortunately I was not successful in persuading the relevant decision makers to get on board with implementing this option. The final reply was:
The decision is to keep File Access as a feature that is available only in Licensed products.
Sorry everyone.

Regards,
Tom, iMacros Support

Yeah...!, that's a pity then, but Thanks for trying...!!
And no chance I guess "they" might/will reconsider once iMacros is EOL, in Novb 2023...(?)
Any News btw about the User "who had a Friend running some Software Company (in Germany)", from the 'Progress' Forum, and who was potentially interested to buy/take over the iMacros Division/Product for setting future Development forth...?
- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial').
- FCI not mentioned: I don't even read the Qt...! (or only to catch Spam!)
- Script & URL help a lot for more "educated" Help...

Thank you for the effort Sir Tom, we respect the decision. However it still hurts that this tool came in to this point.
