Updating from 1.40X.061 to 1.40X.062 Fails

November 22, 2006 2:04:30 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
I've tried updating as specified in the title, but it fails. I've pasted the end of the log below. I've tried both servers available (US-1 and US-2). Any ideas?

First, go to Tools->Settings and choose the Internet tab. Hit the Refresh XML button.  When it's done, hit OK and then check for application updates.  Also, do a search for .sdc files (should be somewhere like C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\sdcentral) and remove those as SDC has been having trouble with resuming downloads lately.

Refreshing the XML data did the trick. The only .sdc files I found were in C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\BACKUP. I'm pretty sure those are my backup files since I've got "archive on update" or somesuch flag set. I left them alone and refreshed the version info. Then the update claimed it was successful. Thanks a lot CariElf!
