In fact sometimes the program version is the same as the executable version but often it is not. The only way SyMenu has to safely know a program version is trusting on the SPS infrastructure i.e. on its own update system. For every program managed by the SPS system, SyMenu creates a placeholder file called something like 24.06.sps.version where naturally the first part is the current program version. This is the only way SyMenu has to track the current version of a program. If you want to update a program before SPS does, you should move your program folder outside the SPS main folder (SPSSuite\SyMenuSuite) to prevent the collision and the notification. Or accept the fact you will update the program again when available on the SPS system. Or you can manually edit the placeholder file name modifying the version part with the version SyMenu wants to move with the update. I hope everything is clear now otherwise, please, ask.
