jkb Posted January 29, 2020 Report Posted January 29, 2020 I have just used the Auto Update feature for the first time to update to 10.0.6 I was very surprised that it did not ask me where I wanted to save the file. I always save the update file with the version number in a seperate folder, so I can easily go back to a previous version if I need to. It downloaded the file, but I closed PTE without installing the update, as I wanted to save it where I wanted it. I then tried to open my browser (Firefox) to go to the website and download. However it automatically did the install without asking any of the usual questions, such as did I want a start item etc. I have no idea where it has stored the download, I can't find it in any usual places. I suppose some people may want a quick update procedure, but If this is the way it is supposed to work, then I will continue to download from the website & do it manually. Jill Quote
Igor Posted January 29, 2020 Report Posted January 29, 2020 Jill, We did fully automatic simple updating of PTE, like in many other new software products. In future version, I can add a special checkbox "Keep a copy of installation file in Downloads folder" for advanced users. Quote
jkb Posted January 29, 2020 Author Report Posted January 29, 2020 Thanks, I will stick to downloading myself from the Forum. I check it every day so can easily see when a new version is out. Jill Quote
Igor Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 Jill, That's OK for advanced user. I'll try to improve the Auto Update in future. Quote
Bert Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 Have waited a long time for an Auto Update that worked smooth and easy. This one does. Bert Quote
