I have SoftPaq Download Manager 4.4.0.0 (which apparently is the very latest version) and it opens, loads the catalog and checks for updates just fine, BUT>>> the information shown is mostly wrong, for example available softpaqs which are either installed previously or cannot run on my system. I have to check each softpaq manually to see whether it is already installed; if not, I install it, despite SDM saying 'No action needed'. I cannot trust anymore the information that SDM shows me. Anyone some tips on what to do?
