Posted on by zlhysong

On my main development machine I am running Power Automate 2.18.00234.22077.

I am trying to deploy a flow to my production machine, but it is running 2.17.169.22042.

I've both pressed update in the app, as well as downloaded the installer fresh, but they both say I'm at the newest version, and will not let me run the new flow because it says the version of PAD is too old.

I've also done the things like rebooting the machine and such, with those being no help.

Is there a place where different installers are stored or otherwise might contain a newer installer than the one linked in the documentation?

Hi @zlhysong

I read a recent message on the forum where a member was a part of the Insider review program and therefore had the 2.18 version. So only few of them have it. Not sure how you ended up with that version :).

I too have the latest version as 2.17.

Do not know but will let you know if I come across any links that have the other version installables.

Hi.
It seems that new version of the PAD will be released earlier in the Insider Preview Build.
PAD version 2.18 will be released in other environments sooner or later.

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, turns out that I'm on the Insider build and didn't realize it. It would be nice to be able to exclude PAD from the Windows Updates so we don't lose productivity like this, but I will just have to make sure I'm developing on the right system so it won't be an issue.
