I doubt all these updates will make much difference, I'd bet most are for compatibility with new products and or features and I haven't seen any change in features to the Nav V so my bet is it wouldn't be an issue if you didn't upgrade.

Yes got that, but when I open express, if there is an update required it normally tells me, but its not this time, and there doesn't seem to be an option to get an update. Guess I'll wait until i reboot, at some stage, that normally kicks it into action

The windows version doesn't automatically notify of updates, you have to do it manually  :(

You need to go to "settings" And drop down to "about"


The update for the program is there.


I have to admit that it is not the clearest way to get an update to a program that I have ever seen.
