No worries, I'd refreshed that page several times in the last couple of hours without seeing any changes.

That's because I made four images last night after checking several times a day for an update.  ;)

If i would not have made the images, I'd still be waiting for the update.  8)

That seems to be a regular occurrence -- plodr makes new images, there's an update the next day.

Fortunately I keep a note card titled changes since image made 10Feb. As things are upgraded removed or added, I put them on the list. If I need to restore an image, then I'll know exactly what other changes I have to do.

I lost one of my favorite extensions with version 44. :(  No more Text Area Cache.   Fortunately, Lazarus does  pretty much the same thing, only you have more clicks to get a choice of what to restore.
