I was about to open the same thread few minutes ago but had to restart after some windows updates, damn you

Anyhow, so what exactly changed?

Sorry I beat you to the punch.
I have no idea what changes other than the numbers.
All I care is that it works.

Thanks for the update, Iggy. Updated and installed the latest version of MSE. Working fine here.

it already automatically updated for me without any user intervention, I must say MSE is simply amazing. I like it more and more.

Looks like the UPGRADE function is now working and far as I can tell it will do it through the Window Update function. If not you can use the UPGRADE link under HELP.

That thread was for the Beta pre-release update.
I tried it and didn't work until someone told me it was the beta release.
Anyway, no harm done.
Have a great day.

Doesn't say Beta in the first post of the thread. It's stickied and updated with the new version when it comes out, like I said, I posted about 1.0.1961.0 last week- http://www.sevenforums.com/system-s...ty-essentials-final-available.html#post288544 in the first post when it comes out, so that's where the updates for it are usually posted.

That article was dated 9/9/09 and was probably based on the Beta. full version wasn't released until a couple of weeks later.

Just for information this was done Jan 2009 when MSE was in beta form and not fomally released. It is now March 2010 and it seems the only reviewers are from users like us. I still feel it is a good package.
