I checked for the latest update and allowed Seamonkey to download the
update and install. I never do that, preferring to download the file and
do a manual install.

The instructions are to restart Seamonkey for the update to be
installed. I did that and got the message that "the update could not be
installed because Seamonkey is already running, etc." and a new
Seamonkey browser opens immediately after closing the message. I
restarted Seamonkey several times and the message just repeats.

I decided to do my usual and download the latest update, installed it
with high hopes. No joy! Every time I start Seamonkey I get the nag. Can
anyone tell me the name of the auto update file and where it might have
been downloaded to my computer?

I would like to find it and kill it. I have no wish to keep seeing this
message for an eternity. Thanks in advance,

BTW; a check with Windows "Task Manager" does not find any Seamonkey
session open except the one that displays the message.


In the Task Manager, did you look on the Processes tab for
"seamonkey.exe" or only on the Applications tab for "SeaMonkey"?

I did look in processes, only the current instance, ending the process
closed the current browser. No others were listed.


That is what I have been seeing, not with installs but generally.  It is
sporadic, about 1/4 of the time.

See the thread "SeaMonkey Shutdown" (started 25 Nov 2013) in this
newsgroup.

Thanks David:

I read the thread but I'm not sure it is of any help. My system has been shut down for almost 24 hours yet after booting up for a new session, I still got the nag when I opened Seamonkey. I'm not a programmer or "code" wise but it seems improbable that Seamonkey was running while everything was shut down without power. And, I'm not much for creating new profiles. It's been years since the last time I did that and it was a horrible experience including recovering all my mail and bookmark files. Why that happened I don't know but at this stage I'm really much too old to risk what works well for everything else. I'll keep an eye on that thread to see if anything else pops up.
