Updating software

Post by Bookerblood »

Hi,

Help please.

It's probably quite simple for I'm not at all techie.

I've never had issues updating the release version until the last two 3.5.0 and3.5.1.

I download as usual and then open the update file. As usual the message please close SABNZBD appears. I go to Task Manager and the only sabnzbd running is the setup file. Closing that, of course, shuts down the update software. Am I missing something running in the background that I can't spot in task manager?

Has anything changed or am I having a moment?

Thanks

Booker

Maybe you have Sab running as a Windows Service?
