I just got the 16.0.2 today (8/17/2017). Now when I "hit" the "check the update" button, it does a large download and appears to be updating (at least trying), but nothing changes. All the modules now say say 8/17/2017 update date except Virus Scan, which still says 7/25/2017. Also engine creation date on Virus Scan is still at 8/16/2017. This always updates once per day. I ran the virtual technician - No problem found.
Solved! Go to Solution.
The problem is now gone.
I noticed a similar problem today. I have been on 16.0.2 for a few days now. Normally the vscan engine updates daily, but it did not today. So I did a manual update. It updated but skipped a number. On 8/16 it was engine version 3075. But after the manual update, it was version 3077. It usually only increments by 1 every day. I did this on two PCs, running Windows 7.
The problem is now gone.
