I am facing some problem for updating my YOWINDOW. Sometimes it was not manually updated and says Weather Expired. How can i solve this problem ? :?:

Please be sure that you use the latest build.
Since Build 271 automatic weather-update should work both in the shareware- and the paid-version of YoWindow.
Generally spoken: "F5" should update the current weather immediately.

There's one more reason for "weather expired" warning in YoWindow.
YoWindow data-base contains several unreliable weather stations.
An unreliable station may not provide the weather in the night or it may provide the weather in too long intervals, like once in 3 hours.
It may happen that the closest weather station to your city is an unreliable station.
Please give me your country and location name so I can check.
If the station is the unreliable one I will remove it from our data-base.
After this operation YoWindow will pick a reliable weather station for your place.
Ultimately the "weather expired" warning will disappear and you will be delivered with the up to date weather for your place.
Reinhart, thanks

Thanks. I posted my question in the wrong place...I guess I'll just wait it out. I just found it odd, as I just paid for the service 2 days ago!

newlissa, do you still experience problems with weather update?
Do you see a gray globe with a red x?
