I seem to have put the strap somewhere safe, too safe. If I happen to find it I'll get in contact. |

Can confirm that GE 5.5 *did* auto-update, even with those options selected. It took 2 days (and 2 launches/synchronizations) before it did, but it still did. So I've uninstalled again, and now installed version 3.29. Which *does* have a specific check-box for updating versions of GE. Let's see how this goes. Thanks for the advice so far. |

Thanks anyhow BS. To be honest, it's not so much the strap I'm after - it's the rubber strapretaining loop, mine just slowly rotted away  |

oi you
I’m fairly sure I still have a spare strap around as well, NE. If I beat BS to finding it, i’ll shout. |

I should do, too - my 310xt lives on a velcro strap and I must have the original somewhere. |

Paul, I have an installer for 4.1something which might be more up to date and still let you turn off automatic updates, if you have trouble with 3.29 |

Cheers Badger. NE - just the little plastic rectangular loop that the excess strap tucks in to? Mine gave out on me a few months ago too. I've just made do with a elastic band looped round a couple of times. It's perishing slowly too, but I have plenty of spares |

oi you
My spare strap turns out to be a used one with, you guessed, the little loop missing. I assume the same has happened to me in the past, though I don't recall it happening. |
