Available Updates for Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.x Not Detected (Version Number Truncated)

[ljmacri]

Preliminary Checks

• [X] I use a modern operating system (Windows 7 with SP1 or newer)
• [X] I use the latest version of UCheck available (stable or beta version)
• [X] I checked that the issue I'm reporting was not already reported

Beta Version

• [X] I am reporting an issue for UCheck BETA

What happened?

I am currently using UCheck BETA v5.0.7.0 (rel. 05-Dec-2023) on a Win 10 Pro v22H2 laptop.

UCheck is unable to detect available updates for Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.x (Installed / Community) because the version number displayed in UCheck is truncated to a single decimal place. Please note that this problem was previously documented in my 02-Oct-2023 post # 251 in the Wilders Security forum topic at https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/ucheck-update-your-software-in-2-clicks.404593/page-11#post-3165403 when I was using an older version of UCheck BETA v4.11.0.0 .

For example, I currently have Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7690 (installed 13-Oct-2023). An important v8.0.7783 update was released on 01-Dec-2023 (see the release notes at https://updates.macrium.com/reflect/v8/v8.0.7783/details8.0.7783.htm) but UCheck will never detect this available update because it always reports that I have the latest available v8.0.

Before it reached EOL on 31-Oct-2023, SUMo was able to correctly detect available updates for Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.x. Here is a sample image captured on 13-Oct-2023.

Like UCheck, Control Panel | Programs | Programs and Features only displays the version number of Macrium Reflect Free to a single decimal place. However, File Explorer shows the full version number of various Macrium Reflect Free files (e.g., C:\Program Files\Macrium\Common\ReflectUI.exe, C:\Program Files\Macrium\Reflect\reflect.exe, etc.) when I view their file properties.

I have attached a UCheck BETA v5.0.7.0 scan log and debug log for today's 11-Dec-2023 scan.

Is the issue reproductible?

Yes

This is the same conclusion as here: https://github.com/AdliceSoftware/UCheck/issues/16 Unfortunately that's part of the community feedback limitations.
