Thanks for the feedback. Now I understand what happened: that extension had an invalid version number, something we manually corrected few days ago. Actually the invalid version number on your client turned on the "available updates" flag for such extension. Actually to remove such information from the local cache the only way to go is exactly what you did (uninstall/reinstall). It's amazing how classic jokes about computer programming are just unveiling the truth: uninstall and reinstall just works! :) Thanks, Roberto > There was an update for pdf import a short while ago and I think the > update button popped up ever since that update. > > Max > > > Am 02.08.2013 15:31, schrieb Rob Weir: > > On Fri, Aug 2, 2013 at 4:33 AM, Max Merbald <max.merb...@gmx.de> wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> my AOO 4 has started to pop a message that updates for extensions are >>> available whenever I start the program.
