I am trying to update Rapidweaver Classic a when I try to use the Check for updates menu I gat this error message. What does it mean and how do I get it resolved. Update Error! RapidWeaver can’t be updated if it’s running from the location it was downloaded to. ---

I think it means that Rapid Weaver isn’t in the Applications folder e.g. it could still be in the downloads folder (where it was downloaded to). Try moving it to the Applications folder and then try updating it again? ---

I am having the same issue as DAHD. Elements is indeed in my Applications Folder. ![Screenshot 2025-07-19 at 2.15.26 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/b/3/b300fa1dad596ecadcdbd33b4a59327061c84d7e.png)
