STM32Cubeprogrammer v1.21.0 shows update notification, but is already latest

[Tom_pm]

Hi,
I just noticed that CubeProgrammer v1.21.0 always shows me an update notification, but it is already the latest.

Restarting the Cubeprogrammer or the operating system does not make any difference.

Environment:
- Windows 11
- I have installed v1.21.0 alongside v1.20, but that should not make any difference, or would it?

Hello @Tom_pm 

Installing the same version in the same directory can cause uninstallation problems. I advise you to remove old STM32CubeProgrammer versions and install the new one.

You can follow the recommendation and the procedure for the STM32CubeProgrammer installation provided in the UM2237 User manual STM32CubeProgrammer software description.

Let me clarify that I have not installed them in the same directory.
2.20.0 has been installed to the v2-20 folder and never moved or modified since the installation, and the same is true for 2.21.0:
C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer_v2-21
C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer_v2-20

I generally keep two versions around, as it allows me to test if any arising issues may be a regression in the CubeProgrammer or if I should look elsewhere. And it has never been a problem the last years, despite this wrong visual indication.

I have the same issue. I updated from 2.20 to 2.21 using the integrated updater, update went fine and now 2.21 is executing (as expected), but it still indicates that a new version is available, which is not true.

Same issue here. First I updated using internal updater.

Then tried to fix it with a clean new install - didn't work either.
