Re: Problem with the latest update

I was getting frustrated with that myself. What I ended up doing was deleting the file (miketex-biber-bin.tpn) from the packages directory. The problem has disappeared and I am able to perform updates as usual.

Using update admin. Worked fine till about a week ago. In spite of new updates announced on the page I still get :
"could not parse the TPM file:
c:\program files(x86)\miktex 2.9\tpm\packages\miketx-biber-bin.tpm"

any idea?
