    As I do everyday, I ran your Software Update & News 4.0.2.2 on several computers. It is not working, Apparently, your server, which checks software versions against the latest updates is down.

    But you are not alone, UniGetUI, another software which checks for updates, is down, too.

    Same issue here. Ucheck isn't connecting to it's database either. I think it's because Winget is down.

    Try running winget list in PowerShell to confirm winget isn't responding.

    It is working today ... no problems on Major Geek's Software Updater or on UniGetUI this AM.

    Apparently all of the updaters are reliant on winget. If it goes down the updaters can't complete their scans. Ucheck was froze on the winget scan.
