When checking for updates, my UE and UltraCompare installations state that "No update available at this time" even though newer versions are available for download on the UE website.
Why is that?
Why is that?
Please download the installer executable or the MSI file suitable for the already installed UltraEdit/UEStudio from the UltraEdit web site and do the update manually while no instance of UltraEdit/UEStudio is running if you want to update now. There is no uninstall necessary before the update on having already UE/UES v2022.0 or a newer version installed.UltraEdit support wrote:We are rolling out a fix to the check for updates process for all products. When complete, check for updates will be re-enabled and will work normally for future releases. Current goal is to complete this process by the end of March.
Thank you very much for the information. I didn't even know about that.Mofi wrote: ↑Dec 22, 2023That was asked also by a customer two days ago during the webinar presenting the new features of UltraEdit for Windows/UEStudio v2023.2 which I viewed too. The answer was a problem with signing all files if I remember correct. This webinar was recorded and I expect that everybody can view it soon.
It is also typical that UltraEdit, Inc. first makes the installer files for a major upgrade available on their website, and two or three weeks later after all related web pages are updated, publishes a newsletter with information about the new major release and makes the upgrades available via the built-in update/upgrade feature.
That makes it also possible that customers early upgrading via a download of the installer file from the website and manual execution like the beta testers can quickly report a serious problem with the public release version. I reported by email three days ago that UE/UES v2023.2.0.27 has a serious problem with the scripting command which is simply not opening a message box during script execution in this version while the scripting command works with UE/UES v2023.1.0.23 and former versions.

Many companies have such a publishing strategy for major releases including Microsoft. I upgraded Windows 11 already to 23H2 although not yet available for Windows users in Europe by downloading and installing the Windows 11 upgrade manually from the Microsoft website.
It makes a difference if a customer with a personal license upgrades manually as soon as possible directly from the website or if a company with hundreds or thousands of installations upgrade all via built-in upgrade/update feature. A small delay of a few weeks between offering a major release via direct download on the website and a more or less automatically applied upgrade for thousands or millions of users gives the software producing company a short time to fix serious bugs reported by early upgrading customers before the real rollout of the new major release starts. In other words customers interested in a stable release should better wait a month or two after a new major release is available for download and installation before doing the upgrade. This is a general rule which I observed over the last 25 years for all applications independent on the software producing company.
