Hello, I've been using the Patch My PC for a over a year now and ever since I've used this, I've had an issue with MultiCommander where if you use the internal MultiCommander updater, the Patch My PC does not recognize the latest version. I even tested this on a brand new setup with an MC install and when the update occurred Patch did not see the new version.
I'm not sure where the MultiCommander is reading the version info, but both the MC about page along with the MultiCommander.exe file property is updated with the newest version. The only area I found the old version being referenced was in the MC Uninstall registry key.

Are detection is based on the add and remove programs data primarily for Home Updater. I'd recommend reaching out to MultiCommander. If they are only replacing a file in their updater and not updating what's listed in add and remove programs, that's not ideal and would likely be something they should address in their self updater.
