Service update: New build released
We've been listening to your feedback here and on the forum, and made a number of bug fixes and changes to better suit you. The update will be published later today. You may notice a slowdown in service or some display issues (missing icons, folders slow or not synchronizing) while the servers update. If you are still seeing these problems after the 20th, please report them!

Notifier
· Fixed device appearing offline in the notifier but showing online on your Live Desktop.
· Fixed synchronization failure when the network is unavailable.
Explorer
· Fixed the Windows Explorer crash when folders were closed
· Fixed the Windows XP “Roaming Desktop Icons” issue with Live Mesh Remote Desktop.
· Fixed the mesh bar not always opening when you open a Live Mesh folder
Live Desktop
· Fixed the “I’m interested in” in your Windows Live ID profile to be correctly viewed. No longer will you be “searching for love and romance” when you really wanted “Enterprise Networking.”

This update fixed the date format problem. Since i've been using Live Mesh that my date format was in US-English. Today i switch back to Portuguese. Thanks. But i still need my OS in English. When will this be fixed also? Live Mesh is awsome. Congratulations.Anonymous

This is fantastic! Thank you for all the hard work your team is putting in to this. My team has been trying out mesh for and everyone was grumpy about the desktop icons on XP issue. I'm on Vista so I didn't have the problem.Anonymous

PLEASE remove the requirement for UAC. If I don't want UAC, that's my business, and should not stop me from using Live Mesh.. I currently don't use it for this one very import reason. Boo.Anonymous

@Siebe Tolsma You may want to look (or may have already looked) at our blog entry on the UAC requirement, and the comments that follow. http://blogs.msdn.com/livemesh/archive/2008/04/28/get-mesh-and-why-we-require-uac.aspx The good news is that the UAC requirement is being removed. We're just not quite ready to do so yet. We will make an announcement on the blog when the UAC requirement has been lifted.Anonymous

I got my invite over the weekend. Ditched Foldershare and am now using Mesh and I'm very impressed. I have a Windows HomeServer and, great as it is, one thing that would make Mesh more worthwhile would be to have a HomeServer client so I could automatically sync my music and photos to it (and then my 360 can access my updated library).Anonymous

Could you let us know when UAC ... might ... be ready (just a heads up... like "we hope to get it in the next week (month, year?)" Oh yeah, btw... If you turn on UAC... install mesh... set it to auto run... uninstall UAC... it still runs even though you don't thinik it does :) I can log into my home machine via the remote desktop part... (which is Vista with UAC turned off), the only part that isn't working is the folder sync stuff. Thanks, -TimothyAnonymous

Hey it all updates just fine, just on restarting explorer mesh wasn't fully updated as it had promised me! I had to manually close it and reopen it for the update to be applied.
