fail to download and install updates - Could not get lock

(1/1)

stevef:
That message is usually triggered when an update process is already active when a second update process is initiated, for example starting a manual check when an automated background check is already running.

Usually just waiting is all that is needed.  Let us know if the symptom continues.
