No more manual update button/option ?

Hi All,

I've noticed after a recent endpoint client update running on Windows 10, there is now no context menu when right-clicking the system tray icon to manually start updates, and there is also now no update button anywhere in the GUI? Is this just an issue I am having or is this by design?

It is really frustrating when client now cannot initiate their own updates when necassary...

Hello Ryan Irvine,

which product line, Central, Home, or ...? I'm not aware of a button in the ESC GUI, only the right-click Update now (which did not disappear AFAIK). As an aside and just curious: When is when necessary necessary? Default update intervals are one hour or 10 minutes depending on the product line so what makes the unavailability frustrating?

If it's the Central Client there is button under the "About" page:

The following VBS will always kick off an update on a Windows client:

dim objALC : set objALC = CreateObject("ActiveLinkClient.ClientUpdate.1")
objALC.UpdateNow 1,1

Regards,

Jak
