I'm updating right now, lol. It's likely 44.2.

Edit, yup 44.2.

 

[dusdev]

It is 44.2. It includes "Cold Weather Improvements":

"Window position and charge connector locking behaviors have been optimized for cold weather"

 

[Cory_YXU]

It is 44.2

Just got it also. It’s cold here, so I’m looking forward to details on what all the changes bring on.

 

[pcons]

Damn you all!!! I had a feeling others would finish the update before me. Lol

 

[TDog]

I’m still installing!

 

[M109Rider]

Any of you speedy research guru’s figure out exactly what the window position and charge connector behaviours actually mean ?

 

[Techniques]

Got it too. Gonna give it a go shortly.

Has nothing to do with windows and opening the door to me so far... Though it's not overly cold in my garage.

Just got it. 44.2

Maybe...maybe it looks like the windows some down a tiny bit further than before. But I never really paid much attention before to how far so it may be the same. If it weren't for the release notes I probably wouldn't have noticed a difference.

I think that’s it. The window comes down farther than before. I can’t go back and check prior to the update, but I don’t recall the seal being this visible before.

I could be wrong. Perhaps someone can compare before they install the update.

Immediately have an issue removing the charge cable. Get a message in the app saying cable isn’t installed properly. It’ll charge but won’t come out. No option in the car to unlock charge port. Just says ‘start charging’ App doesn’t give unlock option either

 

[Tony_YYZ]

Apparently if there is nobody sitting in the car, the window goes all the way up and then comes down a bit?

Unfortunately, 44.2 doesn't seem to include a hair dryer.

Looks like it. A reddit user uploaded a video:

Model 3 44.2 software contains cold weather improvements! : teslamotors

 

[Darthbenji]

Not sure how it’s frozen since it worked fine just before the update. I’m talking minutes.

Obvious concern is whether or not water will get in with the window not forming a tight seal with the upper weather stripping. Seems like a crappy solution. When my windows froze, it wasn't the top of the window that was the issue, it was the bottom of the window frozen against the rubber strips where the glass retracts into the door. This new behaviour won't help with that.

Is it low enough that you would be able to open the door without it retracting at all?
