It is unless you want Beta versions too - many users install official versions only.

You've downloaded an older version and you expect it to make that one an update check to say: Hey, I'm not the current version?

Of course not. I simply hope it would not it claim it was the newest version when clearly that will soon be false.

Again, you load an installer which was actual at the time it was written.
I will not look onto the future and no other installer does this.
Sorry, but its a useless complain.

Portable XYplorer (actual version, including betas)
Everything 1.5.0.1371a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.3.2, Listary Pro 6.3.0.69

No other install I've seen does this claim it is the newest version.

Thanks anyway for reading!

I agree. Especially since I offer downloads of older versions in the freezer. I'll change it. :tup:
