The latest AS 4.12.6 will only be offered as a full install due to some cyber security related issues requiring a full clean installation to fix them. ---

Btw: the download/install of 4.12.6 triggered some malware warning on my site. I got a call from our IT dept and we are now scanning the PC … ---

Now with AS 4.12.6 installed I often get certificate error when installing updates: ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/brcommunity/original/2X/9/98cf912aac6bb4ea68912ec4898dca554cbe9a4f.png) Is it a known issue? Can the updates be installed anyway for now? ---

I can acknowledge that for the AS4\_LIB\_MTBasics.exe i see the same behaviour. If you press Start Installation, Windows will ask you if you trust the installation and you can continue if you want. A clarification like this is not up to the community. Its a behaviour which has to be clarified by regular B&R support, it could also be a potential cyber security topic. Can you please set a request to you local office. Greetings Michael ---

FYI, the installation of AS 4.12.6 causes a re-compile for all of my projects. > [@"C:\\BRAutomation" vs. "C:\\BrAutomation" from AS Setup causes re-compile](https://community.br-automation.com/t/c-brautomation-vs-c-brautomation-from-as-setup-causes-re-compile/5587/7): > > Take care, AS 4.12.6 requires a complete removal of the AS 4.12.5 version and it re-installs everything into C:\Program Files\BRAutomation4 for some reason (there is no option anymore in the setup to chose another path) which causes a re-compile of all of my projects. Why got the path changed? In my opinion the installation path should not get changed within the same minor releases. Independed from that, C:\Program Files is meant for 64-bit software installations, C:\Program Files (x86) is … Not sure if that only happens for C programming language tasks.
