Xara Web Designer Premium 18.5.0?
That's what mine is. Just checked, no update offered for mine today. (18.5.0.63630 DL x64 Jan 10 2022)
I've been getting a pop up shortly after starting the prog in recent weeks telling me to update the 'update installer' which I've done but no update offered.
Re: Update not working...
Yes, that "Update the update installer" is seriously broken.

Well you're not on your own here: https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...-Update-XDP-19
The workaround that worked for me was to download the v19 trial version and add the product key, but even that causes errors with the population of the Designs Gallery - quite a few tickets raised with Magix on these issues now.

Re: Update not working...
I give up with this confusion (for me) with Xara and Magix etc. I can't find a trial download for my Web Designer Premium (to do a parallel install to retain v18) that is newer than my current Jan 22 18.5.0
Has Web Designer Premium been updated since 18.5.0.63630 DL x64 Jan 10 2022 - my current version.
The 'update the updater' message is a pain.
Re: Update not working...
Typically, when they bring out a new version, Xara Designer Pro is updated first and then Xara Photo and Graphic Designer and Xara Web Designer follow - up to a month or so later. I wouldn't expect to see the Web Designer update for a while yet. I believe 18.5 is still the current version, although I don't own it, so can't guarantee it.
Re: Update not working...
Looks like it is only Pro X that has the v19 upgrade atm - https://www.xara.com/eu/products/
Re: Update not working...
Thanks Gary and ss-kalm.
I'll wait and hope they update the 'update updater' before Web Designer Premium gets updated.
Best wishes,

Re: Update not working...
I would move this to Dear Xara but that seems to be a dead letter mailbox these day.
Re: Update not working...
I just updated Xara Designer Pro X from 18.5.0.63630 to 19.0.0.63929.
After going through the download and installation I started up Xara and it again asked me if I wanted to update. The issue was I was starting up the old 18.5 from the desktop icon. I didnt realize there was now two icons for old 18.5 and new 19. If I use the new icon 19 starts up fine. This may be your problem - you are going around in circles.
You can check C:\Program Files\Xara\Xara Designer Pro X\ and see if it has both 18 and 19 versions.
