Installed 1.86 and shows 1.85

#1 Post by Battledad » Sun Nov 17, 2013 3:26 am

I've downloaded and installed 1.86 3x and when I run Mkv it shows 1.85. I uninstalled 185 and rebooted and after 3x I have stopped trying. These attempts also included installing with 185 running and not.

Help?

I too have downloaded version 1.86 and deleted the 1.85. When I install the 1.86 exe. I get the following :
MakeMKV v1.8.5 win(x64-release) started
The new version 1.8.6 is available for download at /download
I have done the 1.86 install 3 times now and get the message above.

What happens if you uninstall MakeMKV first, reboot, and then install 1.8.6? What OS are you using?

The problem was the Uninstall command did not totally uninstall all the files. I went to the program files folder and opened the MakeMKV. There were still some files left in the folder. I deleted all files in the folder. Then installed the program again and this time it showed version 1.86.

So is there going to be a revised install that fixes the issue or does everyone need to uninstall and then go to the folder and remove any remaining files and reinstall? For those of us who have paid for the program will deleting all files in the folder cause an issue?

Ok...I uninstalled 1.85 (but it showed 1.86 in the Control Center but 1.85 when it ran). There were still 2 dll's in the folder. I deleted both those files and then reinstalled 1.86. Now when I open Makemkv it shows 1.86 installed.

So, the installer is faulty.
