I am also having this same issue on many PCs running 4.1.0.0

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Everything is working now. Thank you
#3
Alright I can confirm that it is working now after allowing it in my antivirus program. I can also confirm that my antivirus program was not blocking it prior to the bug fix. Thank you.
#4
4.0.0.8. However, I just noticed my Antivirus program is blocking the updater. Let me add some rules and try again.

Side question, where does Patch My PC store its settings such as the settings checked or unchecked in the options menu?
#5
I just gave it a reboot and tried running the scheduled task which did not work to update. I checked the task manager there was no running patch my pc processes, but it did create the patchmypcupdates dir on the c: with the updater. I deleted that and tried to open patch my pc manually and received the same errors.
#6
I tried to update and scheduled task was failing. Now update failed when manually opening PMPC with the attached error.

#7
I create a directory called "C:\program files\pmpc" and run it from there.

I assume I'll have to first update and then wait for the next update to see if it is working. I'll let you know.
#8
Another one with the same problem.
#10
As far as I can tell this has been happening to me in the last few versions of version 4. Just a few minutes ago I had to run it manually to get the update, and I know I did this about a week ago too which would have been version 4.0.0.7. I was wondering if it was the graphic that loads when you manually run patchmypcupdater.exe which may be making it hang when running silently.
#11
When Patch My PC needs to self update it fails to do so via scheduled task. Then it hangs and never updates anything until I open Patch My PC manually to get the update. After that the schedule tasks start working again. I notice that the PatchMyPCUpdates directory is showing on the C:\ and there exist two updater files in there. Furthermore, the Patch My Pc updater is running in task manager, but I guess it is just hanging for some reason.  This is happening on serveral Windows 10 (1709) computers.
#12
Can we please have the feature back to update Windows?  It made it very easy to schedule and automatically install all updates from one interface.
