No, SimpleSave does not work in Windows 11.
If you want the data - AND if the unit and software still works at all - you need to connect it to a working computer running Windows 7.
Extract all the data from the unit and store the retrieved data where it can be copied via a USB stick to somewhere safe.
General Advice
It was nice software for its time - but it always had one fatal flaw:
Never, ever use any backup method that locks the backed up data into proprietary software.
Good Luck.
