pmb 139 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Hi, I own nearly all Aerosoft MSFS addons. This morning, the updater shows me 4 MSFS products I own having updates available: Wasserkuppe, Bali, Friedrichshafen, Simwings Hamburg None of them can be updated automatically via the Updater. This means, I will have to login into my account, redownload the full installers, unzip them, start the installation and find and reenter the product credentials (for some products the 3rd or 4th time already). I find this process more and more time-wasting and outmoded, even more, as ORBX Central and the Contrail app used by Flightbeam and others streamlined updates without full re-downloads and re-entry of product credentials. When the Aerosoft Updater appeared a few years ago, I was in hope it would provide a similar user-friendly automatic update mechanism for the future, but I rather detect a tendency to return to full reinstalls these days. Even if the product might require a full re-install because of technical reasons, the AS Updater could uninstall the previous version and redownload and install the new one without user intervention. And yes, I understand AS only acts as a distributor in some cases, but this applies to ORBX, too - and all of the products available via ORBX Central, including the partner products, can be updated automatically. Thanks for considering and kind regards, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I wholeheartedly agree and would love to see a solution similar to OrbX Central. Having to juggle a ton of installers that can often not be updated with ASUpdater is so 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhvl 0 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Hi Mathijs, I have the same problems with the actual version 1.6.0.1. It shows no installed products, which is nonsense. Any ideas concerning a release date for the new uploader shown as blurred image? Regards Rolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
