[QUOTE="lokamoka820, post: 1106260, member: 108773"] Patch My PC, the will known software update tool get a major update with version 5, but for me unfortunately it just become bloated without any added benefit to the older version 4.5, it is now installed rather than portable, it needs Microsoft .net runtime 8, its size far bigger, and it needs about 15 MB download for every check rather than <1 MB as it used to be, so now I'm looking for an alternative. I tried to go back to version 4.5, but it will automatically update to version 5 in the next months as mentioned in Patch My PC website, so using version 4.5 will not work forever. They only alternatives I can think about now is: [LIST] [*][URL='https://ketarin.org/']Ketarin[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.adlice.com/ucheck/']UCheck[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/majorgeeks_software_updater.html']Major Geeks SoftwareUpdater[/URL] [/LIST] UniGetUI and UpdateHub are not choices for me because they suffer the same issues that Patch My PC have now. I'm looking for something portable, small, with a good list of apps, any recommendations will be welcome. [/QUOTE]
