I am now on My Family Tree v. 12.6.1.0 x64 (September 2023), and I just discovered it has lost ALL my notes and stories for all but a handful of my 2,628 people in my tree. I have written their technical support and haven't heard back, yet. In the meantime, anybody using this should be very careful. Now, all my notes documenting what I have found and what I determine are gone. This is a disaster!
