Getting Rapidweaver to update

I’ve been using RW since version 4. Since version 5.4 I’ve never managed to get Rapidweaver to update…

I’ve got RW version 7, opened it today and it told me that a new version (7.5) was available, and asked if I wanted to install it.

I said yes, it downloaded a 1.8MB file, extracted it, installed it (saying it would restart RW); and then nothing.

RW doesn’t restart, and when I open RW it advises me there’s an update… you get the idea, constant non-working loop.

It’s done this to me for years now, why doesn’t it work?

I’ll do what I normally do; download the demo version and install that. It is irritating though.

Strange as this works seamlessly for me, although I always do go and download the full version as well, and name it RapidWeaver 7.5 so when I get beta updates I can have the latest stable version as well.
