Routine Desktop app won't open normally without killing processes and restarting

Bugs
When Routine opens, it won’t launch into the app, rather into the screen that says “You need to upgrade your Routine app”. When killing the instances from Windows and relaunching Routine, it works. Also, the version shows 0.23-dirty.

    Doesn’t work for me, the message stays. I tried:

    • Downloading the installer and installing the app again

    • killing the app in the Windows task manager

    • restarting Windows

      Hi @Inner Exception we had a version problem with 0.25.4 yesterday, but it should be fixed now with 0.25.5. Can you confirm that you manage to upgrade now and that Routine is working again with 0.25.5 ?

      Best, Benjamin

        I downloaded the app again and installed it, and now it can launch fine. Is there no auto-update within the app itself?

          There is: It should propose you to update when there is a new version.

          But when 0.25.4 was not working around 24 hours ago, there was not yet a release 0.25.5 available to upgrade to. When retrying today, you should have gotten the option to upgrade. Was it not the case ?

            When the update was not working, I downloaded the installer again to update the app. But now I tried it on a different computer (MacBook Pro) and it updated automatically. So it’s fine now, thank you.
