Hi

I got this error message when I try to run the emulator :

"Unable to send update to device/emulator. As of December 27th, 2017, you may need to install the aiStarter 2.4 package from our website."

Attached file for reference

I can't find aiStarter 2.4, only 2.3 can be found.

Please help.

Thank you in advance!

a good question.

calls down a version 2.3.0 windows setup file.

What platform are you on?
Windows?
Mac?
Unix?

Hi Anke

Thank you for the links.

I noticed that the files is not from the official site of MIT App Inventor, will there be any difference?

Thank you.

@carlong, Have you any idea why you are getting this message and no one else has reported it?

One thing you could try is deleting the .appinventor folder in your home directory (typically C:\Users\USERNAME where USERNAME is your user name). This will completely delete your personal emulator copy and it will get recreated next time you connect to aiStarter. Does that resolve the issue?

Regards,
Evan

Thank you all for providing help, I have found one of the forum has "MIT_App_Inventor_Tools_2.4.0_win_setup.exe" for download. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/mitappinventortest/emulator/5EcwYBjaVGE

P.S. I don't know why this error happened. If I know then I won't be here seeking expert for help.
