Universal installer "update" question?
« on: February 17, 2022, 12:30:26 am »
For the universal installer, will it always show "update" even if it's already completely up to date? I noticed that all of my sceneries for both MSFS and P3d show "update" even after running update all at the bottom.

I'll also add a suggestion that if it's possible can you make an option to "hide" some scenery files so they don't show up? Like make a way to organize the scenery files listed?

Thanks for all the hard work!

The "Update" is a button, that is the name of an action, not an indication of the product update status because, in order to check if a product is updated, we need to actually go online and compare each local file, one by one, with the ones on the server, which is not an immediate process.

So, just assume the button label really means "Check for Updates", and that's it...

Does not work. Does not exist.

That's because you typed it with a lower case i, the link on our Home Page is correct:

http://www.virtualisoftware.com/update/FSDT_Universal_Installer.exe

Have you seen this linke somewhere else on our site that need to be fixed ?
