I'm running 2.43.451 build 147 I think the update you're cancelling is the new one.

try:

go to C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral

in there is a 'restore' - if you run that, it will roll SDC back a version
then open SDC and let it update - it may also do a repair at that time

try:
first open SDC and go into settings > general > auto update = prompt before updating Stardock Central

download and run this one (don't need to unistall first) - then let that one update


from other reports and my own current experience, the one at the SDC download page doesn't seem to want to work once installed.
