Welcome
It is very likely that this forum will be discontinued in favor of the current alternate forums. Since this is a free forum, I do not control much about it and believe it or not, there are more helpful people in the alternative forums. By switching, there will be only one forum and a more active user base that actually helps me answer questions. It is preferred that new topics are started there instead of here.

Ok, everytime I start ACT it prompts me to update to that current version. I have done this multiple times in the past. This time the problem is...I download no problem but when I click update it tells me this version will close the program and automaticly restart Yes or NO. I click Yes like always but nothing happens. Any suggestions.

Found this workaround...

The event handler on the "Yes" button seems to be broken or not working right anymore...
Maybe the updater file name it's looking for is wrong or outdated?
Anyway, there is no error message and it's happening under WinXP SP2 too.

What you need to do as a user (workaround):
- Run ACT, you get the popup "a newer version" blahblah
- Click download
- Click update (confirm with yes)
- ACT will now close down, but the updater window will remain opened.
- Close the updater window
- Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder you installed ACT in (something like C:\Program Files\ACT
- You will find a file named "Update 2.7.0.186.exe" or similar.
- Run this file once by double clicking it, completing the update process.
