I see now that this is a latent bug. 2.46 just installed but the Programs list in Ctrl Panel did not update to reflect version or install date. Scary.

Re: SM2.46 installer did not update Windows Programs list
Auto update and manual (offline) update using full installer work correct at my PCs. It must be something with your OS. Did you used some unofficial SM versions prior official 2.46 release?Justinh wrote:I see now that this is a latent bug. 2.46 just installed but the Programs list in Ctrl Panel did not update to reflect version or install date.

Re: SM2.46 installer did not update Windows Programs list
Every time I have seen something like this the Windows registry had some problems in it. Might also be an Antivirus program interfering. Uninstall it and delete the Seamonkey directory from your 'program files (x86)' The do a reboot and reinstall it. Profile data will not be removed by a delete/reinstall but back up your Mozilla dir under Appdata\Roaming (Enter %APPDATA% in Explorer to find it).

Re: SM2.46 installer did not update Windows Programs list
I did as FRG suggested. Programs now has the correct app info. Now we'll have to see if it updates correctly after the next SM update... (Which I hope is soon; with bug fixes!)
Thanks
BTW, I've used only public releases from SM (via auto-update).
