When prompted to download an AC program/library update, should it be RUN or SAVE? What is the difference? Thanks.

If you choose Run, the file is downloaded into a Temporary folder and then Run. It will perform the update.
If you choose Save, you need to specify a location on your hard drive to save it to. Then you need to go there and manually start the application to perform the update.
I prefer the latter because then I have it on my computer in case I need to reinstall AC and apply to hotfix again.

Thanks. I'll try SAVE option next time as suggested.

By the way, are you related to Laszlo Nagy who created the Virtual Tutor series.
