Release Candidate 1 and SDK Beta 2 Released!

I have released RC 1 of Seven Update, and a Beta 2 update of the SDK. If you have Seven Update installed previously, please uninstall (don’t upgrade). Normally Seven Update will update itself, however there were some breaking changes with the format so it may not work. Also there is a 64 bit version, if your running Windows x64, you must have the new 64 bit edition installed, you can’t run x86.

You may know, .Net apps can run x86 and x64 nativley in the same exe, however Windows Installer MSI’s don’t allow a hyrbid installation. Since i don’t want Seven Update to install in c:\programs files (x86) on a 64 bit os, i have to make 2 installers so they both will end up in %PROGRAMFILES%. I may look into another install solution to get around this stupid limitation.

Changes for Seven Update:

  • Updated UI
  • Hidden Updates bug fixes
  • Update History bug fixes
  • Fixed Seven Update not being able to recover from a download error (BITS issue)
  • Fixed Seven Update from not installing any updates after an error occurs unless a reboot is performed in some cases
  • Fixed Misc UI bugs
  • Updated Resource strings and fixed spelling mistakes
  • Removed support to allow download suspension.
  • Updated the Update History to show reason if update failed
  • Memory and Performance Enhancements
  • Embedded Program List into the Options page.
  • SUA/SUI format Updates
  • Added proper x64 support
  • Added list sorting to Program List
  • Misc Bug Fixes
