Olgir Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 I've reported this issue since MX4 and still it is not fixed. When I check for updates, Maxthon always tells me I have the lastest version, but it's not true. Look at this. It says my version is up to date while I download 5.0.2.1000.

Olgir Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 I mean, this is MX4 AND MX5 bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugSir006 Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Hi, Olgir Thanks for your feedback. It's true that only when we push users to update, then there will appear a pop up window saying that there is a new verison. In other cases, users won't know there has a new release. Since after the official release (5.0.1.3000), versions followed are mostly beta versions. Only when we think the time is right and the verison is suitable for all users, then we will push update. Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for coming to forum. And in forum, you will also be the first to know the news of new release ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxthonJeff Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 As BugSir said, it's not a bug, it's designed to work this way. The updater will only work when we think the version is good enough for all users to upgrade, but not right after we release the new version. ??Set your payment address in profile if you have not.

But 5.0.2.1000 is an official release, isn't it? Still i can't see it in auto-update window so i'm confused. Do you mean that being "official" is not enough for the release to be pushed to users? Or how it's intended to work? Just to be sure that I have nothing to worry about here. I posted this thread on 25.12.16, while 5.0.2.1000 was released on 22.12.17. As you can see, I waited a couple of days before posting this. Thought it will come later but nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugSir006 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hi Olgir, Really thanks for your attention and your support for Maxthon. What you said above is true, that the latest release is an official version. But still, we don't want to push updates to all users at this stage. Since although it is an official version, it may be more appropriate to let some of our users try it first in case there are some fatal bugs. It is like spiral loops for us, we keep releasing betas and officials for users to test and get feedback so to make it better, You may regard this official version as a summary or the fruit of the betas before. Also, we always first announce updating and release information on our forum. So members here are always the first to know there is an update. So, lucky you are a member here. And sorry again for the confusion about the function of MX updater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7twenty Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 It's not unusual for updates to be sent out like that. Microsoft actually does a similar thing with updates for Windows 10. Certain systems that they know should have no issues will get updates first, giving them time to fix/find bugs for other systems which they know may have some compatibility issues. If you're the sort of user who is on the forum, then you'll be aware of the latest version. While it's not as handy of using the built-in updater, downloading and running the installer isn't that much harder to do. Basically, either let the auto-updater do it's thing... or download updates manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
