1. I have changed my downloads location to e:\downloads but after updating my apps I do not see the downloaded updates in e:\downloads.  Where are they held? Are they deleted, and if so can I stop this?

2. I updated Mozilla Thunderbird & Firefox via the app, but after opening the programs they had not been updated. The downloads appeared to complete and install.

It would be nice if the scope was wider, how I miss SUMO, but it's a good program :)

1. Updates for applications like Firefox and Thunderbird are typically installed from a temporary location and not saved in your designated download folder (e:\downloads).
2. These update files are usually deleted automatically after installation.
3. To check if your applications updated correctly, verify the version number under Help > About in the apps.
4. If the updates didn't apply, consider reinstalling the latest version from the official Mozilla website.
5. Resources like SUMO are less accessible now, but you can still find support on the Mozilla help pages.
Hope this information helps you.

Hey there, are you using the Home Updater v4 or v5?
