I’m experiencing a problem with the red update error panel being shown when I go off-line (turning off the cable modem).
My settings seems to be ok for NOT showing this panel…
Any help? ??? :
I did start to reply but expanding the image left me wondering why it could happen when you specifically excluded it.
I don’t know if your having it on Silent may over ride the other options, but then that follows if it were on silent mode, why isn’t it silent.
I mean do the three option you have ticked work ‘show update progress’, Show icon in task bar’ and ask for boot, etc I would have thought silent would mean silent.
I guess we will have to wait for some Alwil input.
Tech,
it is Easter (Happy Easter to you). I do not know how it is in Brazil (it is not a holiday here in the US) but for almost everyone in Europe (apart from avast addicts like David) it is a 4 day holiday … so let the Alwil folks have their spring break.
It’s three days holiday, from Friday to Sunday.
P.S. Coming back to the subject: this problem started with the beta (as far I know) and when the ‘priority’ of the updates have been decreased.
I run into that error too sometimes, and I think just in the last version or two, so I suspect it does have something to do with that priority change.
I’d commented in one or two other threads that maybe the update-icon doesn’t appear (on my system, anyway) unless and until the updater has successfully connected to an update server. So now before I disconnect, I’ll open process manager (or equivalent) to see if Setup is currently running, otherwise I could run into all kinds of problems in addition to that error popup. In particular, Disk Cleanup won’t run (nor will a lot of other shortcuts), and disconnection takes forever.
(Edit) Actually Process Explorer says that Cleanup is actually running, but there’s no button in the taskbar for it. And “Bring to front” simply pops up a message that there’s no window for it.
There is no icon on system tray…
Just the damned panel every time I disconnect from Internet
:‘( :’(
Will be fixed soon.
Good to know that the problem could be reproducible 8)
If it helps, just to mention that the panel is not dismissable, I mean, it does not disappear at all: the user must click on it and then dismiss the message box with the error message that comes after it.
