update

Post by redartsjr »

I purchased Helicon Focus + remote earlier this month. I am running it on Windows7 64bit OS and enjoy the product. I opened it up today 1/16/13 and it informed me there was an update available so I closed all programs and allowed it to update. Helicon Focus 5.3.7 x64 and Helicon Remote 2.6.0.w. Now every time I open Helicon Focus it tells me there is an update for it. The same one I just updated. I restarted my computer after the first update completed then opened the program and the update window opened again. Its getting to be quite annoying after 4 times trying to run the program. I have hit the remind me later tab and it let me finish what I was doing but when I close the program and come back later to work on another project half way through the project the update window opens again. All within a few hours. I am also having a problem saving 3D images. Every time I try to save it my computer freezes up on me and I have to go through the task manager to end the program. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your response. The program is now updated and is working just fine except when it comes to saving 3D images in either versions. The computer still freezes up and task manager is the only way out. I am not sure what usBeta.exe is. But is it safe to download? Would that change the way 3D images are saved?

No, just when I try to save it. I get a nice 3D image when I press "3D model".
I just cant save it.

Do I have to uninstall my previous version to run the beta version?
