Presently no updates from me (Checker)

#1 Post by Checker »

Presently I have severe problems with my computer :(
My computer crashed due to overheating (cooling/ventilation problem).
Sadly, I left the computer alone during a calculation process. I was in an other room when it happend. So I couldn't react quickly.
The good thing: All datas (including my update tool) seems to be o.k.
I'm looking forward to receive some spare parts for repair ... this will take some days/weeks.
I cross my fingers, that everything will be fine till end of the year and I will be back for you next year.

I wish you all a merry christmas and a happy new year !


P.S.: As you see, I'm not completely off ... presently I'm locked in with my tablet-pc (android), but I can't run my update tool on it.

Cheers,

Checker

According to what happened it must have been Windows Update :)

Best wishes.

I'm using WebVersions. It's doing a great job ... with a little help by me :wink:

The program itself is not the problem to restore ... simply download from TPFC,
but the included file with most of TPFC database entries would be a hard/long time work to restore.

But as far as I can see, it seems to be fine :)

Thought as much, but just wanted to check that's all. Hope everything gets fixed soon.

O, noes! :(

Catastrophic system failures is not what you deserve for Christmas, dear Checker -- here's hoping you get back on your feet soon. :!:

Don't mention it.

I've sifted through the database, updated if possible or left a comment if links are broken. However, I have not tested the updates and in case of (apparently) major ones I have just left a comment. Neither did I search extensively for version numbers if they were not immediately present on the programs' websites, nor did I check private apps, apps without version numbers and most of the games.
