Re: MikTeX 2.9: fatal update error ... miktex-tie.exe not found

Many thanks for your advice. This morning the update run like a charm. I changed the server (however I am not sure if this made a difference). But now I am golden again.

Many thanks again for your prompt replies,
J.

I had problems to update three days ago. What I do is to choose a server. I suposse that the install programs actualize the list of updated servers.
That solved my problem.
