Update for me went smooth as butter. Had no hangs on quit, no nothing.
Thank you Willy for another quality release.

Congrats on 11.0 WillyJL!
I got a weird issue, it's failing to finish the refresh because of the app auto-update rejecting github's SSL cert... Is there a way to disable the app auto update while I'm figuring out if it's an issue local to my computer?

as of 11.0, it should be using SSL certs from your system store. update windows, and also try sfc and DISM (google them)
anyway it refreshed fine, just the update check failed, but other than that its working fine

yeah, with all the new traffic the cache api hit the max 600 latest updates requests per hour limit. already hit up Sam and he handled it on their end and will not happen to more threads. im now adding fallback handling for this, then will clear the cache for the few threads that got this error cached

Ah i see, well I guess is to be expected considering how many use the Checker.

yeah. just pushed it, shouldnt happen again as sam added an exception for it, but in case it does its handled a bit more gracefully. also cleared cache for those affected games, should be good now.

Mint 22 is the latest version. which is based on Ubuntu Noble, which is the latest LTS of ubuntu (release april of this year).
But yea, it is plausible. let me know if I can do something to help.
I don't have QT installed at all. I am pretty sure there is QT bundled with the app. and the new version bundled with it is not working with the system for some reason. possibly requiring some other stuff

what great numbering scheme, 2 behind current year, love it

Ha. I didn't think about that.
Yea, that is an interesting coincidence. Mint numbering is just a number rather than a date.
It is the 22nd major release. v1 was released in 2006. and they just added 1 to it every major release instead of using dates to signify the year the way ubuntu does.
It would probably make sense for them to start using the same ubuntu number as the version they are based on.

It looks like whatever is generating the PowerShell script that does the actual update is using the PID for explorer.exe instead of the PID for f95checker.exe for the Wait-Process cmdlet. Which usually won't close until logoff/reboot, hence the hanging update.
I couldn't find a .ps file in the git repo, nor could I readily locate any code that might build that script, so hopefully this is enough to track down the issue.
EDIT: Not sure if it matters, but I'm updating from v11.0 beta 1320

this explains it. in the past main.py would re-launch itself to capture log output (capturing log output from python is not possible as what youre usually interested in with logs is what goes wrong in other underlying code like Qt and OpenGL which don't log through python), so the update process would not wait for its own process to exit, but the parent one, because you would have explorer.exe > F95Checker.exe > F95Checker.exe. some time ago i removed this behavior as it was clunky and never worked well, and opted to instead have a debug executable which is suppsoed to run in a terminal to see log output, and now its just explorer.exe > F95Checker.exe. but i had forgotten to change the behavior of the updater. i changed it 1 day prior to releasing 11.0.
basically, auto-updating from 10.2 to 11.0 is fine. auto-updating from the 2 betas before 11.0 to 11.0 is fine. auto-updating from older betas to 11.0 hangs.

Ah, I didn't refresh the messages in time my bad. So should I just download a fresh copy of v11 from git?
Edit: Just pulled a fresh copy of v11 from git. Works perfectly! Thanks Willy!
