Hi Wolfgang,

Downloaded the update  must of been the browser cache.



In case of future problems, when you have the download URL, say "https://whatever.org/downloads/someFile.xxx"; then change the link to read "https://whatever.org/downloads/someFile.xxx?id=123456"; (added "?id=123456" to the URL) and this will cause it to read afresh from the URL and not use the cache.

Obviously, if "id=123456" failed, you would need to use a different number on the retry to avoid the cache again.

It also doesn't have to be "id" this would also work "https://whatever.org/downloads/someFile.xxx?norman=plonker";! ;-)

You just change the parameters after the URL to bypass the cache. I wrote a Javascript utility some years ago at work which generated a random URL in this manner when people complained about getting the rong versions. It worked!


Cheers,
Norm.
