StationPlaylist STudio and Windows 10 App Essentials 18.09.2 released, a note about update channels #addonrelease
|
Hi all,
StationPlaylist Studio and Windows 10 App Essentials 18.09.2 is now available. Both versions come with mitigations for update channel selection:
Regarding Windows 10 App Essentials: the bug in question may have been caused by the fact that users might be running really old pilot snapshots (subsequently confirmed by me). I did say numerous times that update checks from old pilot builds will end in September, but apparently this warning was missed by a few. I’ll say it again (and one last time): no more pilot snapshot builds (unless things change later in future). Thus if you find that update check isn’t working for you from the add--on itself, check which add-on version you’ve got, and if you have a pilot snapshot, switch to stable channel for now.
Speaking of channels and update checks: the above notice does not apply if you are using Add-on Updater to check for Windows 10 App Essentials development snapshots. This capability will be extended to everyone on Thursday, including for those on stable channel. Cheers, Joseph |

Hi, Regarding Windows 10 App Essentials update error: figured out the root cause (pilot build eligibility was still being checked); I’ll release 18.09.2A to correct this problem. Cheers, Joseph

Good Afternoon Joseph and group: Has anyone else had problems installing add on scripts/programs. I had to uninstall all my add on's to NVDA. I thought just by chance I could reinstore, but no chance. I've gone to the site to get add on's but they won"t update. I can enter on the name but no action with 1809 build 17763 and nvda 1803. Dave
