yay, the "cannot autoupdate" message is finally gone. :D

This is due to an MS bug im pretty sure. At least I have seen a similar issue with Windows Update which was corrected via a hotfix.

Try the 1.9.44 test deployment and see if it behaves the same. (Read the main thread)

Also try uninstalling WAU from the control panel then deleting the entire clickonce application cache

C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\apps\2.0

This looks like the fix I need to get WAU to work. Please dumb it down on were to find the 1.9.44 d/l. When you wrote, "Read the main thread." It made no since to me even though it might other, I'm slow. I couldn't find frame of reference to read. If you would be kind enough to put the link in a reply, that would be great. Also, What is the clickonce application cache? The location spesified must be different on my XP machine. It's location does not ring any bells and I've taken a look.

Okay.. Now almost every time I update I get a Windows error that the WAU has encountered a serious error and needs to close. It'll generally go through the entire update process and fail immediately after updating the last out-of-date addon. I'm running what I hope is the latest from the auto-update option (1.9.43.602).

Err, just recreated it:

WowAceUpdater has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

And it gives me the options to send the details to Microsoft or not. After clicking either the WAU closes.

I finally unistalled wowace updated and deleted the C:\Documents and Settings\*user name*\Local Settings\Apps\2.0

I still am receiving this:

WAU Version (1.9.44.654) assembly version (1.9.44.28121)
Error During Download: System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: The attempted operation is not supported for the type of object referenced

Any other thoughts?

I can't seem to get it to install no matter what I do. I actually had it installed was using firefox with the ffclickonce addon. installed and such. but I made a mistake and manually deleted wowaceupdater from my computer (dont ask why) everypossible wowaceupdater or anything named that is gone. Now when I get to http://www.wowace.com/wau/publish.htm I click the install button and do the same thing as before with ffclickonce and nothing happens, but wowaceupdater is no where to be found on my computer. I also tested it with anything with clickconce and when I go to install nothing happens ever. also "Note: The zip is probably the easiest." None of the setup files work or the 2 Application manifests they just don't work no error or anything just nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated to fix this -.-
