Are you currently on version 7 (and it says 'program is up to date') .. you might have to wait till they release it (it varies from region to region)
Or is 'Update Program' grayed out, see here: forum3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=79599&p=9243 ... dx#p925014

Or do the option that @Modern Times suggests, which ever is easier.

I did not even know there was an update so I followed this link to a thread mentioned here and I had no problems.

Worked fine for me and the similar update for Chessbase 16.
I DID have a problem with the previous updates for both - for some reason I had something stored in the wrong place but CB Tech support walked me thru it.

I tried updating CB16 and I get this error Image

I am going to send this to CB support to see what they say.
