2020.24.6.9 Side Repeaters out...

[davidmpatterson]

Before upgrading last night, they worked perfectly. After update this morning: nothing. Just a spinning circle. Anyone see this? I have a MS LR+ bought in 12/2019...

No. I got 2020.28.2 yesterday and working fine.

Hi Davidmpatterson,

I got that update Thursday night July 16, 2020.
You seen to be a long time user / lurker...
You don't want to hear mine work great...

I would repeat the most often provided advice:
If one reboot is good, 3 are better... and cannot hurt.

There are varying opinions if rebooting with the scroll wheels
and the brake pedal is a different reboot or not...

One poster recently suggested the the "Best"
reboot could be accomplished by going to "service menu"
and changing your wheel size - This provides a "deep" reboot
and of course when you are done you have to do it again to return
to your correct wheel size and again the long reboot...

These things are computer on wheels...

Reboot

Actually the best reboot, is a Power Off, under Security. Then sit in the car, do not touch pedals or open the door for just over two minutes. It takes longer for the car to come back up. But it is a Shutdown.

Thank you, ShawnA, for the unusual, but successful, test case! It worked, but I would not have thought to do that to the car - sounds like a Windows problem solution: remove a driver, let the system reboot, then let it freak out when it doesn’t find the right driver, so it installs the right one, reboots and starts working again! Elon’s dev team needs to move from Windows and start using Linux-based development systems...

Hi Davidmpatterson,

I am glad to hear it works well...
It's odd but many people (including me) automatically reboot after a software install
even though the last step of the software install is a reboot...
