Hi team, I've been away for a while.
I downloaded Update 438. (I'm currently running 437.) When I click Install, BIAB freezes. I have to use the Task Manager to shut it down. Any ideas? Thanks.

Did you try to do this from within the BIAB program (under check for updates)? If so, I would suggest instead just downloading the BIAB 2016 Update 438 manually, making sure BIAB is closed, then performing the install. Then run BIAB, and you should be up to date.

If you still have trouble, run the installer As Administrator.

Also you may want to try turning off anti-virus (or other protection) while installing so they can't interrupt things behind the scenes.
Certain versions of certain A/Vs have had issues with some recent BiaB installs .. but eventually BiaB is once again 'allowed'.
Just something I remember someone having an issue with.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Good point.
We really need to write a troubleshooting guide so we don't have to repeat this all the time.

Certain versions of certain A/Vs have had issues with some recent BiaB installs .. but eventually BiaB is once again 'allowed'. Just something I remember someone having an issue with. That was me Rharv, thank you, i'll keep rubbing it in here: I recently was forced to switch to USB as my older RME UFX still had firewire 1394a, and the new UFX ii model doesn't anymore. This because since switching to Windows 10 from 7 i had firewire issues, also with legacy driver settings. My point is that USB (2.0, and 3.0?) is not always working perfect, as firewire did on Windows 7. I have quite often an audio dropout stutter, most of the time a single hiccup. Never had that with firewire. Is USB too universal?. It definitely needs some priority setting regarding realtime audio and maybe video hardware. PS I remember my old parallel port Delta 1010; used that for more than 12 years, also with a PCI card, alas that slot is no more on my current ASUS x99 PC mainboard. This Delta model never gave any problems with windows XP, and windows 7 64bit. The reason i am continuing with Windows 10 is that i really got fed up with those permission issues from installers and the yearlong registry buildup causing more and more fatal errors needing a revert to an earlier True Image saved boot partition. Windows 10 in my case boots up twice as fast and runs very stable, only this USB gives me headaches. PS windows 10 needs quite a bit of tuning, WIN10privacy and similar tools can be of great help turning off all those unwanted MicroShit spying and delaying your system in the background. Some Firewalls can be especially bothering USB timing, Bitdefender is a NoNo IMO, and graphic gamers acceleration stuff also hampers USB realtime traffic. F

It worked! I downloaded the bb2016438 file and ran it with BIAB and all other programs closed. Thanks for the help!
