PRTG is uninstalling time zone updates

Votes:

We just upgraded to 15.2.17.2804. Now PRTG is uninstalling our time zone updates which is causing an error in our proprietary program.

Usually, PRTG doesn't uninstall any software. What lead you to this conclusion?

After we upgraded, our proprietary software fails to launch with an error stating the time zone can't be looked up. We checked the event log and the problem is a time initialization exception. No other changes have been made.

Just to make sure - by time zone updates you mean Microsoft patches? Has the application been debugged already so that you can make sure it's not a wrecked DLL that crashes it?

Update: My apologies, this is indeed a bug. We're working on fixing it, most likely in the 15.x.19 version of PRTG. Sorry for the inconvenience!
