Manual update keeps updating from 5785 to 5787. Why does this continue to
happen with these updates?
 
Hi,

I'm seeing the same problem. This happened some time ago as well... as
though the "Update" flag is not being set before the program ends. Last
time, someone at Microsoft saw a post similar to this one, made a fix, and
that solved the problem. With any luck we'll see a repeat performance.

Till later,

I hope so Rick. This seems to be a bug they are unable or
unwilling to fix. When MS announced this program will be free with no
charges they probably greatly reduced the staff to work on it. It's STILL
beta 1 and hasn't even advanced to the beta 2 status.
 
Hi there i had trouble with MSAS updating too here is my fix approved by
Bill Sanderson MVP

Captain Pugwash said:
Yes Bill it definatly works ive just re run the whole process again just to
make sure heres what i did:

completely uninstalled MSAS then run ccleaner to completely rid of any files

run system restore back to the 31'st dec

reinstalled MSAS then checked to see that it "does not work" and it didnt

opened MSAS folder through program files look for updater icon(satalite dish)

double click icon and updater appears in system tray to inform you of new
version

accept new version download and MSAS updates as normal.


To me and you bill this might seem quite an easy fix but for people who are
not quite as adept at using windows this would be very offputting to say
the least.

Maybe there is a way to place this fix on this forum so people can got
straight to it?
