How should I handle update errors (Moneydance on Windows)?
I’m afraid there is a known problem which exists when trying to automatically update Moneydance on some versions of Windows. It is related to the way Windows handles file permissions. Sometimes logging in as administrator allows the update to complete. It is also sometimes necessary to manually modify the permission of the Moneydance directory to ensure that your user has write access. On Windows 7 and Vista, you can try disabling User Access Controls. To do this go to the Control Panel, select System and Security, Action Center, Change User Account Control settings. However if you don’t want to do that you may find it simpler to manually download the latest stable version from our website at http://moneydance.com/other. The latest preview version is available at http://moneydance.com/preview.
