UVK Update

Post by Charger440 »

For the last few versions it seems as though the built in program update does not work. This computer I am using now is one of them. It says there is a new version, asks if I want to update, downloads the update, closes the current instance and then does nothing. When I run the program again it is still the older version and wants to update again. If you can think of a way I can test it to give you more details let me know. AV was off at least one time I tried it but it did not make a difference.

I have not had any issues. I just updated about twenty seconds ago from 8.0.3.0 to 8.0.4.0 without issue. I’m using Windows 10 64bit.

Hey Bill How is you?

I only have that issue on some computers. Others like my other laptop have updated just fine. I'm not sure if Fred has anyway to see what didn't work in the update process or what.

I’m doing ok. I have two new granddaughters since May. It’s a little warm here but I shouldn’t complain since it took forever for spring to show up in northern Minnesota. I hope you’re well too. :)

I am doing pretty well. it is HOT!! here. Or, at least it was, it has cooled down some now so that is a good thing.

Congrats on the granddaughters!!

I've experienced that issue too. Most of the times I just run UVK again, update again, and this time it works. I think it's an AV software that prevents the execution. Actually I think it is Windows defender, but I have to check that out. When it happens, can you please report the currently installed AV?

Thanks.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

I will report the av version next time. I have tried running and updating again but that never works for me.

I’m not so sure its Windows Defender. Every one of my own computers whether it has Windows 10 or 7 has MSE or Windows Defender on it. That along with SAS and MBam are the only three things I’ve ever needed.
