“Odd” is just what I thought myself !! 🙄

I went to check out GOG Galaxy yesterday. I have the latest version but it was only showing like 8 of my 60 games11111. I went to GOG.com and logged in and they showed everything. I logged out of Galaxy and logged back in and they were there all but one.. which I am not to worried about. GOG used to be sooooo good but lately it's having problems.

I read that all you need to do is a "sync" and all your games should be there. I didn't have to do it, so I don't know for sure!

Well today the Galaxy wanted updating and it would not work. Using your (Drac's) link it did once I exited out of GOG Galaxy - I just right clicked and hit exit - I did not go through the task manager to do this.

Thank you!

Edit: Except, now the game that I was playing will not open ???

2nd Edit: Thankfully, a computer restart did the trick.

And if you did the 6.0 update, they told me that is "supposed" to fix the issues with the update not working. We'll see.

Hi Draclvr,

I finally got around to fixing this update issue. Turns out I had to log out for install to work. Logged in did not show on Task Manager. Once logged out the install took. I kept getting GOG Galaxy running, close all applications. Logging out did it. Thanks for all your help here in gettng this problem fixed

Excellent, Orion! Strange how it worked differently for hagatha and me. I didn't log out at all, just found several instances of it running down in the Background Processes and ended all of them. As this last one is SUPPOSED to fix the issues with the update not working, let's cross our fingers!

Orion, all you had to do was open up the hidden task bar and right click the GOG icon to click exit to close the app like I mentioned above. Then you just double click your desktop icon to open the app again (and/or maybe restart your computer). No logging out or in.

Hey oldbroad,

I unpinned the GOG startup from the taskbar which removed the icon from my desktop completely. I then sent another .exe from the GOG Galaxy folder to the desktop. Checked it out, still logged in the update would not install. Once logged out it installed. I pinned GG back to the taskbar. Received an update yesterday and went well. If we run into this issue again I will give your suggestion a try first. Thank you

It seems to have worked differently for all of us!

I had an update today which seems to have gone fine, without having to exit from the app or anything.
