Installing UR 6.3.0.20 Shows 6.3.0.19 in Help/About

[cnewtonne]

I downloaded & installed the latest UR software from the download link which is supposed to be 6.3.0.20, but Help/About still shows the older version shown below.


TEW30.DLL version 30.0.0.6
UltraRecall.exe version 6.3.0.19
unins000.exe version 51.52.0.0

It isn't in the main installer. There is a separate patch file that you download and extract into the UR installation folder. See

Unfortunately, it's nigh impossible, expensive, and very inconvenient to digitally sign executables on Windows anymore, so this is provided in a separate file (unsigned).

I'm sorry to hear that. This is certainly not good news

Does this mean from now on, all future UR updates will be in the zip format? No more setup.exe?

One more finding, please.
Even the "Ultra Recall Portable ZIP File [64-bit edition]" link downloads the .19 release.

This has been updated.

Developers are suggesting that MS is coming up with a new Trusted Signing Azure service an affordable price and simplified process.

Also, they are saying that Certum offers a reasonable pricing for their certs.

Using zip archives to distribute apps on Windows nowadays is a user-experience hit and a regression. It makes it hard to recommend UR to others. Hope there is a way to avoid it.

Hope this helps.

Most likely.
