Hi Steve

Would it be possible to include the build number as part of the filename please?

Like this please; CumulusSetup_498.exe

Thanks

I'll think about it :)

The advantage of having the same file name is that download URLs always work, and it's less work for me when I upload. I suppose I could create a symbolic link with a fixed name that references the actual file with the version numbers in it. I'd have to remember to change it though. I probably need some sort of automated mechanism.

For the proper release versions, keeping the same filename makes the steps I have to go through easier.

I just add the build number to the filename when I save the download.

I do, but sometimes I am not sure if I am downloading the latest version - they do sometimes pop up at a rate of knots!
