Software Update: Patch My PC 2.4.0.0

Version 2.4.0 of Patch My PC has been released. This program can check if the latest versions of a large number of programs – including Mozilla Firefox, Java, iTunes, Skype and Adobe Flash – are installed. In addition, it can see which Windows Updates are still missing from the system and which programs are starting with Windows, and can remove programs. This makes Patch My PC comparable to programs such as Personal Software Inspector from Secunia and Update Checker from FileHippo.

The program itself is less than half a megabyte in size and does not need to be installed to do its job. The user can indicate which updates should be installed or skipped and then everything is retrieved and installed with one mouse click. The following changes have been made in this release.

What’s new in 2.4.0.0:

• Patch My PC will now auto update unless updates are disabled in options
• Fixed an issue where the Shutdown and Restart option after applying updates did not work
• Removed create restore point button in options
