I just updated my version to the current (by hitting "check for updates"). Now when I hit "check for updates" I'm told that have the current version. However:

  • "About" reports version 0.1.2021.301 (whereas the release page says V2021.0310)
  • If I search for the SPLIT node, no such node appears in the results.
  • There's no Undo/Redo on the Edit menu
  • Copy/Past of nodes does not work.

My login is a Standard User, but I can elevate when prompted during the install and I did close the App when prompted during the install

Checking the properties of the exe shows a file/product version of 1.0.0.0 and the date modified for the file is 02/03/2021 03:50 (I'm GMT - can't remember whether file dates are relative)

Something weird happened with the last auto-update - not sure what's going on.

You can directly run it the auto-update. In the install directory (most likely C:\Program Files (x86)\MindBullet\McDIE) there's a program called WyUpdate.exe.

If you run that it should get the update.

Alternately you can re-download the installer from itch.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Still trying to figure out what went wrong.

WyUpdate.exe just tells me that I already have the current update

Running Setup.exe from a fresh download (as a Standard User, expecting to elevate when prompted) complains that "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue..."

Running Setup.exe as "Admin" prompts me to choose to install for "everyone" or "just me". I don't want to choose either option as I'm the only user who will use the tool and the admin account isn't my normal account.

In the end I had to do a full uninstall/reinstall cycle. I installed for "just me", but had to elevate to do so (surely that isn't right?). Regardless, it appears to run OK and it is build 310 rather than build 301 (I'd always avoid build numbers that have transposed digits, it's so easy for mistakes to occur).
