I understand the crossline now, but that is not a big issue. The issue is that if ignored, it should not be listed to the right, but I do understand now why you do that.
I have set both auto updating and silent updating set to disabled.
As far as the outdated listing on the right that is expected even if the app isn't set to auto update we still want to list it out to let you know it's outdated
Oke but the issue is that they are -not- outdated anymore. I updated them manually. So after a rescan or restart, they should be shown in green at least.
With that said, we are open to feedback on this feature and how you would like to see it work.
I appreciate that. I would like to see it working a bit more like PSI does. I will try to explain.
There are more people like me who don't want or trust programs like PSI and this, to update their applications automatically for several reasons and want to do it manually or partly manually. Hence disabling auto and silent updating.
The way I like to see it work is like this:
- Split the option between auto updating and ignoring some program, so it's possible to disable global (and silent) auto update but the program's are still checked.
- When the split is done, people can select separate program's to ignore from scanning, which is not possible now because they are greyed out when global update is disabled
- When a program is marked for ignore from scan, place that program in red as you do know, but to the end of the list on the right, and it's possible because it's stand alone now, to put a crossline throught it to make clear it's set to ignore. The cross line is not a big thing though. Putting it to the end of the list is already very nice.
- Keep programs listed in red on top of the list to the right, which are not updated yet.
Benefit of this is that the user can totally create his own way of updating. Either automatically and/or silently, or manually or partly manually and isn't confronted with an application in red every time which he doesn't want to update anyway (ignored from update). But which can be updated at any point if they change their mind, by scrolling to the end of the list on the right side, where it still is present in the red color.
This way you also create a different between programs which should be ignored, and programs which should be update, but maybe are choosen to be update later.
And users who want to manually update their programs, can check this way if the programs in red at the top of the list disappear (so turn in green at their alphabetical position in the list like the rest) because their manual upgrade was done correctly.
Fixes:
Please fix the fact that if program's are update manually or via the program itself, they really are rechecked and turned green on the right, if they are updated. This is a bug. At this moment they still are in red as you can see from my screenshot.
Because for example it says I'm using OBS Studio 20.1.3 while I'm in the meantime already using version 21.0.1.
I also updated Malware Bytes to a newer version and others mentioned there, but this is not detected by the program, neither when doing a rescan.
Edit: As for the fix, I just update my Mozilla again and seen that PMP does detect this update.
But it does not detect the updates I made for:
CPUID CPU-Z MSI 1.78
Malwarebytes versie 3.3.1.2183 - 3.3.1.2183
NVIDIA PhysX
OBS Studio - 20.1.3
TeamSpeak 3 Client - 3.1.7
and those are all already at newer versions at the moment.
