There is a slight delay between the time you update your software and the time that your Secunia PSI installation checks the Secunia database for updated scanning rules. If you would like to update the scanning results immediately after updating your system, run a full rescan from the Scan Your PC tab. By clicking the “+” button next to the program entry on the Scan Results tab, you can see the “installation path”, which is the location of the file the PSI is detecting. If this file is located on a backup drive, or somewhere other than the default install location, the vendor’s upgrades may have problems installing. However, if you have the ‘program monitoring’ feature enable the PSI should notify you of the change within minutes.
