news and changelog (2015-06-05)

the updater itself still works fine - but there's a few site changes:
added header (modified Otter Browser icon), md5 sum, VirusTotal scan result link and new header font

about

a batch script that provides a one-doubleclick-installation for Otter Browser weeklies/betas on Windows

it will become obsolete once Otter implements its own update routine

download

otter-updater_3g.exe

md5 checksum: 678b2b20622c46305d7dee675945e6c2
VirusTotal: scan result

usage

run otter-updater_3g.exe from the directory where your otter-browser.exe is, usually %ProgramFiles%\Otter Browser\
(you can also create a shortcut to it on your desktop or start menu or wherever you like)

the updater will then attempt to download and install the latest weekly or beta. after running once, it will remember your settings such as installed version of Otter and also of itself plus preferred version (64 or 32 bit) on 64 bit systems. so next time you run it, it should do its job even faster than before.
