I have:
Visual Studio professional 2013 Update 3windows 7 pro/64bitinfragistics pro 2014.1 (build 14.1.20141.2108), and many older versions
When i run the visual studio extension (infragistics, check for updates), it gets part way to 'retrieving installed infragistics products', then pauses. The i get Visual Studio 2013 has stopped working.
From event log i found: Infragistics.VSExtension, System.NullReferenceException Infragistics.Wrapper.Interface.Utilities.VersionlessSettings.AreAnyProductsInstalled()
I downloaded the visual studio extension from infragistics and ran a repair. This finished ok but did not seem to help the problem.
I'm glad it's working for you now. It's definitely weird that it just stopped occurring when you did nothing special. I'm inclined to think that it was the reboot that did it but I have no way of knowing for sure. It's unfortunate that we were not able to determine the exact cause.
Well that was weird. I did not touch this for a few days, then when i started VS, the updater came up correctly. I was able to update in the normal way.
I have no idea what fixed it, maybe the server was overloaded when i tried before, or perhaps some change on the server end.
Maybe a reboot of my machine fixed it. no idea.
Thanks, i was able to download from dropbox ok.
I'll have to try installing it another time - out of time for today.
I just tried with the link you sent and it did work. The download had started. I'm using Chrome.
Try using this link: http://download.infragistics.com/products/NetAdvantage/WPF/2014.1/SR/Infragistics_WPF_20141.2174_SR.zip. I also uploaded it to dropbox so if the download.infragistics.com link doesn't work for you, you can try this one. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19105321/Infragistics_WPF_20141.2174_SR.zip
Just tried chrome 'the webpage is not available'
I guess your server is packaging up downloads for each person, maybe large downloads are messed/overloaded.
I have had infragistics for at least 3-4 years so there is a lot of stuff here. I think i did a cleanup as much as i could some months back of old versions, but that was hard to completely clean out.
