Home Updater: General Discussions, Questions and Updates / Re: Windows Notifications Disa...

Last post by Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC) - March 01, 2026, 04:57:49 PM

I'm sorry.
I just found the place to disable this.
One would expect this to be under the settings tab, but it's under the "Schedular" tab.

"Schedule to Check and Notify for Outdated Applications" which is done every 2,5 hours and this must have been automatically enabled because I for sure did not.

I now disabled this check and hope the notifications are gone after that.

A notification system is not a bad thing, but it causes issues when displaying above anything which is running at the moment, even work, forums or games. So maybe as suggestion it can be programmed to not pop over everything?

You are right. The notification comes from the "Schedule to Check and Notify for Outdated Applications" option under the Scheduler tab. If that is enabled, it will show a Windows toast style notification when updates are available. Turning that off should stop the popups.

Appreciate the feedback on how it behaves. It is intended to act like a standard Windows toast notification, not something that disrupts games or work. If it is popping over full screen apps, that is not the experience we want.

We will look into the notification behavior and see how we can make it less intrusive.

We should have 16.2 showing up as the latest for Home Updater. Let me know if you still see it not updating.

Home Updater: Report Detection Issues or Installation Issues / Re: MultiCommander detection i...

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.

The App doesn't fit the full screen. Instead, it's bigger than the actual laptop screen, which means I can't see the X button on the top right. I have to physically move the window to be able to see the X. To clarify, my app is fullscreen, but it's appearing bigger than fullscreen - see img.

Would you be able to provide us the current resolution and DPI of your machine?

Thanks. 72 hrs in and they still are not updating within the program. Wonder if it has to do with the free edition.

Home Updater: Report Detection Issues or Installation Issues / Re: PDF XChange Editor

Last post by dking02 - February 26, 2026, 07:03:25 PM

The problem you describe appears to lie with the PDF-XChange updater program, not Home Updater.

Tracker Software released PDF-XChange Editor 10.8.3.408 on 24-Feb-2026, followed by a bugfix-only release 10.8.4.409 later the same day. See the PDF-XChange download and history webpages for details or click on the "Home" button within PDF-XChange Editor to display its product webpage which lists the current version as 10.8.4.409 (as-of 26-Feb-2026).
