Swordfish IDE version didn't update 2.2.0.1>2.2.0.2

Not that anyone's life depends on it, though the Help > About info screen isn't updating the SF IDE version. It's remained as 2.2.0.1 after updating to 2.2.0.2

Did you restart the IDE? If the help about shows the old version, then the update has not worked. What happens if you run the update again? (after restarting the IDE)

After watching the download progress bar, restarting and then allowing administration privileges for the update, I assumed it had installed.

Turns out it didn't! A second run-through did the trick - Cheers David, and sorry for wasting a few bytes of your SQL database

Call it coincidence, but this happened again after updating from 2.2.0.2 to 2.2.0.4 (not displaying the correct version in Help > About)

Second update attempt and the 'About' screen displayed the correct version.

Not calling this a bug - could be something localised to my PC. In any case, if other people experience a similar scenario then simply run the update twice..
