Scale Auto DVD Question
Posted by Evil Appetite on Friday, March 26, 2021 2:33 PM

Since Scale Auto no longer exists I'm not sure where to post this. 

When I try to open one of the PDFs' A dialog box comes up asking for a password to open it. By chance does anyone know how to get around that?

Looks like you are trying to open one of the data .pdfs directly.  I assume the issue pdfs are password protected to prevent them showing up on the internet (since they are intellectual property).  Try opening the interface that came with the CD.  It should be the file "ScaleAutoArchive.exe" and if you've downloaded the CD, it will be located in the Scale Auto First 35 Years 1979 - 2013 folder.
