Latest BandLab Assistant v6.0.0

[HIBI]

Just wondering...
No update message is displayed when starting BandLab Assistant v5.2.0, however, there is new BandLab Assistant installer version 6.0.0 on https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk. Why no update message on BandLab Assistant?

Mine shows in the bottom there did you miss seeing that? But then as typical there is still a buggy install and I have to manually update.

Just make sure we all don't update if they have a 6.66 software update ?

@HIBI, thanks for the heads up.  Like you I'm not seeing an update notification when I run V5.2.0 BandLab Assistant.  I downloaded and ran the "latest" BA installer and now BandLab Assistant is V6.0.0.

Great!  Again, thanks.

Your BandLab Assistant v5.2.0 had shown an update message?
I'm still running v5.2.0 but there is no update message.

Probably I will jump in it. ?

I have no clue which version it was. I never look as it's not what I consider critical to using Cakewalk. It might have been an older version. I update Cakewalk almost immediately when I see the hub bub on this forum.

Hello mr. Meng,

why the automatic update of Bandlab assistant always failed?

Is it really so difficult to solve and making right this annoying bug?

[John Vere]

Yes, I just take it as a given that it won't work. I usually have to re download from the web site. 

I got lucky this time and it downloaded to my download folder and I fired it up from there. I did have to re log in and it never remembers me so I have to look up my password. I don't mind, it's free and so no right to complain.

I'd like to mention to clarify the purpose of this thread.
The point is users do not notice that there is an update of BandLab Assistant because no update message is displayed when running v5.2.0.

I am just concerned what will happen when the next CbB update available. Will CbB be updated without any problems via old BandLab Assistant, or find no update?

Maybe the update fixes an issue where an update is available but BA doesn't tell you...
