Yearbooks Desktop

Product Retirement & End of Life Notice

Important Product Changes: June 1st, 2026

After two decades of helping publishers, teachers, students, and advisors preserve their school memories, we are announcing the retirement of Yearbooks Desktop. Since its initial launch, this platform has served as a cornerstone for capturing the events, milestones, friendships, and shared history of generations of high school students across millions of PDF pages.

Technology and publishing environments have evolved significantly over the past twenty years. It has been 10 years since the final yearbooks software update. We have made the difficult decision to sunset Yearbooks Desktop and focus our development resources entirely on next-generation software solutions.

If you currently have Yearbooks Desktop installed, your local application will continue to function on your device as-is. However, please be advised that because development and support have ended, we can no longer guarantee compatibility with future operating system updates or provide technical troubleshooting assistance.

Publishers please note: we can no longer generate license keys as of June 1st 2026.

"To the publishers, teachers, advisors, student editors, and community members who put their trust in Yearbooks Desktop for twenty years: thank you. Your dedication, creativity, and feedback shaped this software into what it became, and it has been an absolute privilege to help you preserve your school's history."

Dave, Simon & Nathan - The Yearbooks Desktop Team
