26 upgrade problem
Hello
I am running xp sp3. I have been using adam 25.x, I saw there was an upgrade yestereday and did the upgrade. Everything went fine. But today, it will not run. Windows cannot access the specified file or path..... permissions. Okay fine. I will just download it again. Nope. Okay, I will download and install in new folder. Nope. Still the same.

Check your virus scanner.. It likely put it in a box because it didn't know what it was. Try adding an exception for it.
Also let me guess.. You use Avast.

I have now the Version 26.0.2.
I do not get the version 26.0.3; PM says, Up to date?

Re: 26 upgrade problem
Did you click the "no thanks" button on the updater window?

Re: 26 upgrade problem
The easiest solution is to download 26.0.3 and install it manually. The internal updater seems to download the full 20+MB installer anyhow.

That would happen if you click the "No Thanks" button on the large update window that pops up, that is what I meant to say.Max1964 wrote:I get no (Automatic) Update Window since updatet to 26.0.2.

Server-side everything is in order (I double-checked).
Downloading the installer and running that as suggested would be a solution for your problem.

Re: 26 upgrade problem
I had a similar problem with SecureAnywhere from Webroot. The specific problem involved the file plugin-container.exe accessing the internet. I added the file to the white list.

open the control panel and click on the gear after [PC Security], open the tab [Block/Allow Files], click on [+ Add File], then navigate to C:\Program Files\Pale Moon, highlight [plugin-container], and click [open]. That should prevent any further nonsense.
