Hi Guys
Can I make a silly suggestion … Please name downloads with their revision numbers eg “Manager 17.6.1.msi” or what ever extension format
Peace …

This could actually cause problems among the various operating systems supported via the worldwide distribution system. To monitor current version of the software, go to this URL: [https://mngr.s3.amazonaws.com/version.txt](https://mngr.s3.amazonaws.com/version.txt)

Actually it doesn’t. From feeding the distribution pipeline through final installation on some users’ computers, there are valid reasons for keeping the name constant. If you want to rename after download, you’re free to do so.
