What happened?

One Zen isn't updating automatically and even after updating it manually when I open the app I still get the "Update available" popup. I googled the latest version and it's "1.12.10b" and the version I have is the same but I don't know why it's asking me to update

Expected behavior

After the manually updating it it was supposed to update

Actual behavior

Even if I downloaded the new version and updated manully I still get the "Update available" popup

Steps to reproduce

  1. downloaded the new update from the actual site
  2. went through all the installation step
  3. reopened zen the "Update available" popup is still visible

Try to uninstall the app then install it again. It worked for me.

Why did they close that issue? Clearly it is still an issue?

I created a new issue so hopefully the devs can have a look: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/issues/9387#issue-3217771066

Should be fixed now 👍🏽

It still does not work, at least on OS X using “Zen Browser” instead of “Zen” package. cc/ @mr-cheffy
