Core library update

[Mark King]

Is there a way to have the update installer to install to mire than one destination and if not can you include this in the future please?

I have the full library on two drives and want to update both at the same time. The update only allowed one library and shows as installed so you can’t run it again. Since SD3 has the ability to have backup libraries it would make sense for an update to cater for this with multiple destinations.

This time I had to go through the files that were changed and manually copy them across and add the new ones. Other option is to copy the whole library again. I suppose I could dig out the actual executable file and run it again and select a different drive but then what’s the point in having the manager.

The updater does have the ability you ask for. If it only showed one path, it must be because the other path is stored in the wrong place – in SD2 preferences instead of SD3 preferences. There is currently a bug in PM that could cause this if you add a library path through PM (Details > Installation Info). It can be fixed if you first (in PM or SD3) remove the path that didn’t appear in the updater, then restart SD3 and add back the path there.

I’ll have a go at what you say.

In SD3 I recently set my primary path to a new m.2 drive the secondary path is what was my original path to a spinning disk. SoI would have thought it would recognise this since it was never in sd2 as I am talking SD3 library only here.
