Latest Version of Addon Updater is not compatible with my just-updated NVDA, is there an alternative?

I just updated NVDA from 2021.2 to 2022.2. I knew this update would break addons, but thought I'd just be able to download and install a newer version. However, When I ran the addon package for Addon Updater after downloading the latest stable version, NVDA said it was incompatible. There's no mention of this feature being built into recent versions of NVDA—I read the changelog to be sure.
Do I just have to update mannually again? I know Emoticons has a more recent version but I couldn't update it before I updated NVDA, which broke the addon updater. |

Hi, I'm assuming you've downloaded Add-on Updater from community add-ons website. If so, the latest version should be 22.07. I'm wondering why NVDA 2022.2 is saying Add-on Updater is incompatible as the add-on supports NVDA 2021.3 and newer releases and compatible with them. Cheers, Joseph |

The version I downloaded was 21.0. I went to the site you get to
when pressing "Get Addons" in the addons manager. Was that not the
right thing to do? On 22/07/2022 12:03 pm, Joseph Lee

I just realised I had an old package from the last time I had to do
this still sitting in my downloads folder. It's been years. That's
actually sort of embarrassing. I had the right version all along and
just ran it. Thanks for making me double-check what I downloaded
today!
