As of version 2.0.3 File Thingie can automatically check for updates. By default File Thingie will not check for updates automatically. A status box will be displayed when the check has been made notifying you of the results. Click the Dismiss button to reset the update counter.

You can turn on automatic update checking by setting the AUTOUPDATES setting to a number greater than 0.

If you want to check manually there is a small link called “Check for new version” at the bottom of every page. Click that link to contact this website and check if a new version of File Thingie has been released. If a newer version is available you will get a download link and a link to see what changes has been made in the new version. If no newer version is available you will be informed of your version and the newest version as reported by this website.

If no information is displayed or if a blank box appears the feature is broken and I would love to recieve a bug report from you! Both the automatic and manual updates sends the URL of File Thingie for statistic purposes. This data will never be shared with anyone.
