I thought I was out of date with 1.4.1.1022

Everything-1.4.1.1021 fixes a security issue with using an insecure HTTP connection to check for new versions.

Hello David. I thought I was out of date with 1.4.1.1022 on the older Windows 7 laptop of mine, but see now that 1.5 is an alpha version.
That said, when I Help, Check for updates I receive this popup:-

Install_09.png (12.53 KiB) Viewed 1297 times

The pop up doesn't really tell me what went on.

I would like to suggest a low-priority modification that saw the message become something like:-

Code: Select all

Everything is up to date.
I upgraded from 1.4.1.1022 to a.b.c.defg

or in my example

Code: Select all

Everything is already up to date.
I did not upgrade from 1.4.1.1022

and perhaps in smaller font
"There is a new alpha version at <this link>" although newcomers like me maybe should not be told about alpha versions except by reading the forums?
Thanks, Chris

The 1.5 alpha version isn't offered as an upgrade to 1.4 users.
You have to update manually
