The desktop app won't update, or the version never changes

Windows app
  1. 1Quit normally (tray icon → "Quit ScriptFox", or close the window). Ending it from Task Manager skips the install-on-quit step.
  2. 2Tray icon → "Check for updates…" (the menu item shows your version). "You're on the latest version" means nothing newer has been published yet.
  3. 3If it was installed into Program Files (a per-machine install that asked for admin rights), the updater can't replace it: uninstall, then reinstall to the default location.
  4. 4Last resort: tray icon → "Download latest from website…" and run the installer over the top.

Checked against the app on September 15, 2026.

Still stuck?

Two ways to a person. Both are read by Tyler, who built ScriptFox.

Fox is the chat bubble at the bottom right of every page once you are signed in. It answers from these same pages and hands you to a person when it can't.
