    Does adding this bring back Pro Cache mode? I use this extensively, Patch My PC is run from a NAS and stores all logs there as well as saves every download for use on ohter machines, all timed to get the files after a primary machine. I have data caps :( and this helps save my data.

    Updated to 5.1 and the new option works fine. Thanks for the update to a great app.

    This was the defining feature of PMPC.
    I simply don't understand how this feature was deleted in the first place.
    What was the reasoning for this?
    Removing it causes us to waste more data, time, money, even carbon!
    Why?

Add Option to keep downloaded updates

Merged
It would be handy If there was an option to be able to keep the downloaded update files, rather than have them deleted after they are installed. They can then be reused on other computers.
