Error message "Installer integrity Check failed" while upgrading to nRF Connect Desktop v2.7.0

[Jeff4BLE]

Myself and others have received this error message

while upgrading nRf Connect for Desktop.

Despite the error message, the installer seems to have completed correctly. 

Do we need to uninstall and reinstall, or it is safe to assume that nRF Connect for Desktop and it's applications are installed correctly?

Post update, the only issue I observed is the Programmer app needed to be manually updated.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Jeff

FYI -  As a follow-up I uninstalled nRF Connect for Desktop. Went to download the latest  version, however, v2.6.0 is still the newest downloadable version. I downloaded and installed v2.6.0 and during the v2.7.0 upgrade process, the same error message occurred.

Hi Jeff

The nRF Connect for Desktop v2.7.0 that was released today is broken. The only fix is to uninstall and revert back to the more stable v2.6.0. We are working on fixing this, but for now please be patient. If you get the pop-up asking you to update to v2.7.0, click NO. Please share this with anyone asking as well. 

Bet regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

It appears the updating utility is now fixed. The solution is is to:

1) If install error occurred while update updating to v2.7.0, uninstall nRF Connect for Desktop.

2) Install nRF Connect v2.6.0

3) Update when prompted.

Cheers,

Jeff
