Spybot 1.62 Scheduling issue

[Chismtrail]

I have set up Spybot to automatically update and run every night. When I upgraded to 1.62 I started getting a pop up box that states "Please select some update files from the list first. Best I can tell it still does the updates except I am left with having to click OK for this pop up box after Spybot has run. I assume this is caused by the EDIT (updater) logic which when I enter this in the run command I see it gives me the same message.

"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SDUpdate.exe" /autoupdate /autoclose

I tried adding autoupdate to the EDIT logic but still get the same issue with the pop up box

"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /AUTOUPDATE /AUTOCHECK /AUTOFIX /AUTOCLOSE

Is there a fix for this. Like I said prior to upgrading to 1.62 I did not have this issue. Thanks

Hello,

It seems to be a problem with the compatibility under Windows Vista.
You can solve the problem as follows:

1. Download this new SDUpdate.exe (http://www.spybotupdates.biz/files/beta/SDUpdate.exe-1.6.1.19.zip#hash(md5:A0E7FDF5E87CCE18C46C6B6676996FFA).

To use this beta file, extract the downloaded archive into the main application folder (usually C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\) and replace the old file with the new one.

2. If this does not help go to your SDUpdate.exe file in your program folder: 
C:\Program Files\ Spybot - Search & Destroy\

Rightclick the file and choose properties.
Then choose the tab compatibilty.
There activate the checkbox in front of "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select from the drop down menu "WindowsXP". Now click "Apply" and "OK".

That should fix the problem.

This problem has also been discussed in our forum (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?p=296467#post296467).
