Thanks, Jim. I tried that - I assumed you meant to delete the zipfiles for dx4win.cty and dx4win.awd in the Update directory, so I did that, and then ran the updater. It reported updating 3 files, but afterward the dx4win.cty and dx4win.awd files in the main program directory still reported their old "modified" date. It seemed to me that the updater ran far too quickly to have downloaded both those rather large files.
