Hi, I just manually hit the "check for updates" button, and was prompted to upgrade inteng7x.dll from version 369 to version 370. Despite 2 retries, I kept getting CRC errors. At that point, I followed the suggestion in the error message and manually downloaded the file from your website. That got me back in business, ableit running 369. Couple comments
- after the first failed attempt I noticed there was NO valid copy of the file on my PC. Help/about and "check for updates" both reported quote module = 0.
- perhaps it would be worthwhile to preserve 1 or 2 previous generations rather than overwriting them. Maybe something as simple as inteng7x.dll.old, then put instructions in the error message telling the user how to revert
- the existing help message suggests downloading the file manually from the website, but does not say where to put it. I figured it out, but more detail in the message would have been helpful.
- this whole thing is repeatable. Once I got back to 369, I tried "check for updates" again, was prompted to install 370, got a corrupt copy again, etc.
- also noticed the "check for updates" message claims the current version of FM is 7.7 I'm on 7.6, and have not been notified that 7.7 is available. I also didn't see it in the programs directory of your website. Bill
