Cannot update QMapShack for version 1.20.3

Hi,

I have been using QMapShack V1.20.2 with Windows 11, and today I noticed the existence of a new release 1.20.3.

When installing the new version, the installer stops saying "QMapShack running. Close it and restart the installer!"

According to the Task Manager, the software is not running; I have even tried to install the software after restarting the computer... but I always get the same message.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

Thanks in advance, best regards,

Augusto Sousa

Which Installer did you use? There are two: https://github.com/wthaem/qmapshack/releases/tag/V1.20.3

Dear WST, Thanks for your attention.

I am using the "QMapShack-1.20.3.0_x64_setup.exe"; if I understood well, the other installer becomes with a few things preconfigured... and I do not want to modify my own configuration.

By the way, to install the current version I have, I used the equivalent (?) "QMapShack-1.20.2.0_x64_setup.exe ".

Uninstall the current version is a little risky... if the new version continues not installing, I may become without any version at all...

Thanks again for any help you can give me.

The best,

I brought it to the attention of the Windows package maintainer.

Btw: Each release has a discussion thread in github: https://github.com/Maproom/qmapshack/discussions/1103 This is the direct way to address issues like that.

Hoops!!! Sorry, I didn't see that... Any way I obtained the attention of another user, "WST".

Thanks any way!

Dear friends,

The problem is now solved. I saw a suggestion from another user in the release discussion (in the GitHub releases): rename the folder where the current version is installed. At the first try, this didn't work, but after a PC reset, the new version installed perfectly.

Many thanks for your attention to this. If I can be helpful in any way, please be free to ask!

Best regards,
