Get a fresh copy https://www.stardock.com/sdnet_login.asp and re-install. It will auto update itself...re-boot.

Did you reboot after?

If yes and the sitch is still icky...

You might just need to re-start the browser...

I had it crash on me during an update the other day...shut it down and restarted and it went a-OK.

That's correct...now do #1...don't un-install just install over old copy, Re-boot and update WC Browser first and see if it works...if it does do the others.....

BTW..I should have added that the updates and SDC have nothing to do with each other (one won't screw up the other). I think it's just that your SDC install is wacked...there's nothing wrong with the other updates.

I think that the updates are something you want to hold off on for a bit....

at least the beta updates
