Here we go again. Iโ€™ve tried to use the FileMaker Pro Windows updater and get this on 2 test PCs Iโ€™ve tried. The update is not being seen by the in app updater as yet. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fmsoup/original/2X/c/cf193afd9ef72cb5b9df12c6bddfc8fcb67bd1b6.png) ---

FMS--The download server must have a very slow modem attached! I'm getting about 300 KB/s! EEK! (Unlike with every other product I update, i just always have to hold my breath to see if the update works or breaks something else ....) ---

Agreed, we were downloading from one of our cloud servers that has serious bandwidth and it crawled at 06:00 this morning. We always download all the installers and updates within the cloud, then transfer to our AWS S3 servers, which download very fast. ---

Installers that fail, servers with small throughput . . . Claris as usual. It is recommended to download the updater using the link provided in the email received form Claris. ---

What email? LOL Also, FileMaker itself was clueless that it had an update. If it weren't for your posting, I wouldn't have known anything about any update. Thanks for posting that update info! ๐Ÿ™‚ ---

I am talking about the email you get from Claris when you buy or renew a plan: you get your license number(s) as well as download links for FMS and FMP. ---

I'm taking the opposite view. Big servers, with plenty of bandwidth, being overwhelmed by the demand for downloads. ๐Ÿ™ƒ ---

Even with big iron in the barn (I remember them being experts in barn business ๐Ÿšœ ), without booking sufficient bandwidth at Akamai or another CDN, downloads will be ๐ŸŒ in many places. ---

Yep, that sounds like an improvement! Can we order floppy disks instead? ---

We download around 06:00 BST or GMT, I canโ€™t believe this is a high demand time taking various timezones into account. ---

Here yesterday 12:10 CEST FMP took just seconds to download, server about 5 minutes. Installation without any problems. Everything done on two servers and three clients within a quarter of an hour. FMP-Updater did not yet know the update. I got it via the before mentioned email-link. It is normal that not every machine gets the update info immediately. Apple also distributes their updates over time. This is how they want to avoid download peaks. ---

Has anyone managed to run the Windows FMP stand alone updater yet? It has failed on every PC weโ€™ve tried.
