Confused on Updates

Recommended Posts

The pinned topic says there will be installer updates this week for the 737, 777 and 747.  My OC says all three are up to date (last installed about 10 days ago.  Have the new installers been released?   My version numbers are: 737 1.20.8396, 747 3.00.8382, 777 1.10.8395, 777-300  1.10.8386.

If these are the up=to=date installers, fine.  I'd rather not unintall and reinstall the same versions if the new ones aren't out yet.

 

Thanks

That's what I thought.  Figure there will be an announcement when they are released.

Bob-

Running OC and checking there will ALWAYS be your best bet.  If you need an update, it will let you know.  If you need a full reinstall, it won't be shy about that either. :)

Well, in fact it does not tell you, it just does nothing and at the beginning you might be puzzled by that. At least this is what happened to me when I did the latest update, since I forgot that I had to do a complete reinstall and I tried with the OC...

It does tell you. When a full reinstall is needed a notepad is opened when you press the install update on the OC and there it says that a full reinstall is needed and full instructions on how to do it.

It did not do that in my case, I tried several times and I could not understand why it did not update. It might depend on my system anyway...

than the note pad  must  have  been  hidden behind  the oc  or  in the  task bar
