Install 3.7.3 successfully, but when quit reverts to 3.3.5.1

#1 Post by gabrowntravel » 2013-09-11 16:24

I have a MacBook with 10.8.4. I've had FZ for years, but have just updated to 3.7.3.

Immediately after installed 3.7.3, FZ "About" shows the version as 3.7.3. However, when I close FZ and reopen, it shows the version as 3.3.5.1. To get 3.7.3 in About again, I need to reinstall the update from the installation file I downloaded. But then, as before, 3.7.3 exists only as long as I have FZ open. Please advise.

It sounds like when you installed FileZilla v3.7.3 in a different directory than the version that the icon is pointing to when you run it. In order to correct this, you may need to export your Site Manager entries, uninstall FileZilla, and re-install it so that th eicon you are running it from points to the correct location.
