Someone At eBay Decided to Make Turbo Lister Impossible To Use On Vista Because Of Captcha

 

 

In the never ending efforts of eBay to make it harder and harder to list on eBay, they have added a new one.

 

Some genius decided a member needed, after years of NO PROBLEM, to add a Captcha requirement to getting on Turbo Lister (TL), but it doesn't work on a Vista computer locking sellers out of their listings and data, I could not even do a backup.

 

A very long call to customer service and many attempts to get around this failed and the same is true on both my Vista computers, my favorite operating system for working with images.

 

A final suggestion was that I transfer the TL data file to another computer with a newer operating system that had TL and replace the old TL data file with the one from Vista.

 

That to my relief worked, but I don't know if all other Vista users have that option without buying a new computer.

 

So, if you have Vista, BACKUP TL before closing it or you may lose everything.

 

Congratulations eBay, another mindless change that prevented me for listing for many days and could have cost YEARS of work, and for some just might have.

My understanding is that Turbo support was discontinued in February of 2019
