Hello,
When I start dasLight 5, I get a message: There is a newer version of the software. Do you want to download?
Ok, I will do that. Installation runs completely.
Software is restarted. Same message again.
It has been like this for 2 days now.
Windows 10
Greetings
Rico

Try to download the new version direct from the downloadsection at the DasLight-Homepage.

Hello,
I have done that. Installation is running through. But when I start the software, the hint comes again.

Maybe you are starting the old version.
Install the latest version (Maybe in a new folder).
Go to this folder and start the daslight (e.g. C:\Daslight 502-2\Daslight 5 --> Daslight5.exe)

Do you see version 5.0.2 or 5.0.1 in the Startup-Dialog?

The software cannot be uninstalled either. An error message appears.
When downloading the software from the website, a notice comes from Windoes that the software is dangerous.
Install it anyway?
Yes, installed anyway. But only after I have to confirm several times that I know the risk.
Updating the software does not work, because the software writes itself several times in the Windows Regstry. With each attempt to install the update, another DasLight installation is created in Windows.

So, now I have solved problem.
1. uninstall the software. But only one of the 3 instances can be uninstalled.
2. cleaned the registry. All entries of DasLight5 searched and removed.
3. deleted all files and folders of dasLight5.
4. reinstallation. Changed the installation path from DasLight_5 to DasLight-5 to make sure that no old files are used.
Result: Installation in version 5.0.2.1 without any problems.

But during download and install Windows gets nervous and reports: UNSECURE APP.

Gibt es dafür schon einen Lösungsansatz? Ich hatte auch 4 Instanzen von DasLight5 in der registry.
Das war ein mühsamer Prozess um die Version 5.0.2.1 zu installieren.
Is there already a solution for this? I also had 4 instances of DasLight5 in the registry.
This was a tedious process to install version 5.0.2.1.
