    I just got this notification. I don't see why that should happen, hours later, after I got the update.

    No offence meant to the dev' team but a lack attention to detail in the little things is what causes bugs and vulnerabilities in otherwise well designed software.

    You have to remember that it's a one-man dev team, and that you signed up for the beta testing, which you'll have to encounter numerous bugs, even critical ones. :D

    After all, discovering bugs is one of the main purposes of beta testing stage. :)

    Sure, I get that, but in the short time this thread has been active we've seen the same problem with beta updates twice now. I could well be wrong but it looks to me like an oversight.

    Manually checked for updates, updated, and yes the slider is there.

    But a question: When I open PL from the task bar for the first time it opens on 'Active processes' tab and shows many, including Windows processes. If I switch to 'All processes' tab and the back to 'Active processes' it shows a reduced set of processes. Is this as it should be?

    That problem is solved. I've gone back to the stable release v8.x. :D

    This tab is only showing "active" processes with CPU-Usage.

    Switch with Alt+Tab to a program which is not shown in Process Lasso, and "do something" with the application.
    Now you'll see that it suddenly appears in Process Lasso.
    After a few seconds of inactivity it will disappear from the "Active Processes"-tab, because it has no CPU-Usage anymore and it is not considered an active process.

    Why does the beta keep installing v8.9? I don't get it. o_O

    Are you installing the betas manually? If so open the main PL window and click on Updates along the top edge; is "include beta versions" checked? If it's not checked what may be happening is the auto-updater is rolling back to the latest release even though you already have a newer beta.

    This latest time I did manually install the beta but previously I had that option checked and still found v8.9 had replaced the beta.

    I hope this issue will be resolved in coming betas.
    Better leave auto-updates disabled, if you don't want to see the release-version (instead of the beta) after each auto-update :doubt:

    On my main laptop, it says no update available. o_O But I know there's .221 because that's the version of my other laptop' PL (I just installed it through the installer from the site).

    That kind of option exists for a long time already (i.e. in v9, v8, v7, etc). :D The one in the picture is not the same, but the functionality is.

    You can find it through: Options - General Settings - Refresh interval (governor).

    Nope, that is not the new functionality that has previously been released as a standalone app called CPUBalance (which I had installed), and that Jeremy said would eventually be release as part of v9 at some point.
