Topic: Install Action - Replace issue

Hi everyone, how are you?

I need your help with the Install Application action. I don't know why, but whenever I try to update an existing app on my computer by dragging it's DMG to the action, macOS asks if I want to replace the existing file but somehow the app is not actually being replaced. This is driving me crazy and I can't figure it out why. I already tried uninstalling Dropzone and it didn't work. Replacing it manually works fine.

Any hints what could be the issue?

I'd appreciate your help!

Thanks!

Re: Install Action - Replace issue

I have found and fixed the issue causing this.

You will need to update the Install Application action to the latest version to apply the fix. To do this, go to the 'Add-on Actions' tab in Dropzone 4 settings and click 'Check for Updates' in the bottom left - you will then be prompted to update to the latest version of the Install Application action (v1.6).

Note you will need to be running Dropzone 4 Pro to install this action update.
