Or keep asking engine developers about this feature in DEV Q&A's.

I have the same issue but I'm using an imac!

It says updates are available if I restart the launcher as administrator when all I know is that if I hold command then it's basically the same thing. Well, nothing's working. I downloaded the torrent from the download page. Anybody know what to do?
