Microsoft Automatic Update found and installed the update with no problem whatsoever. It does launch a little faster, but I wish there was some sort of visual feedback on the splash screen to let you know something is happening. I'll take what I can get...
12.1.2 - artimuskaine
This did not work for me but I have tracked it down to the issue and MS should take note so they can fix their installer code.1. Had no issues in any update to 12.1.1.
2. Removed languages files except English (you can remove them).
3. Tried the autoupdate; failed with that error message about not finding an valid install.
4. Tried downloading the dmg and tried installing; same error as in #3.
5. Install and download files were English.
6. Mounted a backup drive with a copy before language removal.
7. Autoupdate and downloaded file worked just fine on this version.
8. Copied all changes to main drive; MS 2008 works just fine.
9. Tried to run both update files against my newly updated MS 2008 (which all read 12.1.2); told me no valid installation. I was only expecting that it was already up to date.
10. MS needs to modify their installer and remove this darn bug.
