Default Bentley Publishing (eBahn) manual upgrades

Finally got round to reinstalling my manual after a disk crash long ago on the system it was on.
Expecting the usual PITA process I checked online re the current process and compatibilty with Windows 7 (none effectively) but did discover a "free upgrade". It still only really runs on XP but you can install it on 2 systems.
And the installation & activation looks better (haven't done it yet though)
My existing copy was fully registered at Bentley with an online account so the upgrade was quick & painless with an automatic email confirmation. Download was simple too, just need to install now.

This is the summary from Bentley:

As of February 2011, Bentley Publishers is providing courtesy eBahnŽ license upgrades for free to anyone with an eBahnŽ 2 license registered to their account. This offer is only valid for licenses that have an eBahnŽ 3 equivalent and have not already been upgraded.
You are responsible for upgrading your eBahnŽ Repair Manual Content and eBahnŽ Reader separately from this eBahnŽ License Upgrade. For information on how to do this for free, please read the following Frequently Asked Question:
https://wiki.bentleypublishers.com/x/VYAL
SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY
eBahnŽ 3 Reader is compatible with Windows 2000 and Windows XP which are the Windows operating systems available at the time the software was developed.
Users with more recent operating systems should read the following Frequently Asked Question:

CONTENT AND FEATURES
The content within eBahnŽ 3 represents the repair content available at the time of publication.
The features within eBahnŽ 3, including the user interface, tools and navigation, have been updated since eBahnŽ 2.
SUPPORT
As part of the upgrade, you will receive 30 days of email support. You will receive no additional phone support or content update support. The support period begins upon completion of the upgrade. Support will be limited to issues relating to installation.
MISCELLANEOUS
Upon completion of the upgrade, your eBahnŽ 2 license will be permanently deactivated and will no longer be eligible for support or upgrades. The deactivated license may not be sold and is non-transferable.
The upgraded license received as a part of this upgrade is non-transferable.
