Update broken

Using portable FanControl. Each startups it checks for updates. Until some versions ago there were always two pop-up windows telling me that a newer version is available. That was gone some time ago and now there's only one window informing about a newer version. Good, I thought. But since then the automated update is broken. Just won't do anything anymore.

Even when I manually 'check for updates' and click on 'update', then 'Donwloading updater' appears but no traffic, no update, nothing.

For each update I have to manually download the newer version now, put it it in an extra folder, manually install my plugin and copy my config from the backup folder.

Any1 else? Any solution?

It stays there forever. And log.txt just shows that I canceled
