Currently on 5.9.9.87
Getting window showing that I can "Install latest update available 5.9.9.90 (10/5/2025)"
Selecting basically shuts down Blue Iris, but does not update.
I can manually restart, which then again lets me know an update is available.

I experienced the same thing when I tried to update from 5.9.9.87 to 5.9.9.88. After several retries it finally updated and has been fine since. Anyway, if you can't get it to update you might want to just download the update and do a manual install.

You can find the updates here:
 
Thanks- At first I thought BI was shutting down, and the update process was not starting. But in EventViewer, it is crashing. I am also seeing it crash when hitting "ESC" to get out of full screen mode. Will try to update manually
 
Follow up- I didn't have an ad-blocker on my security server. When trying to download 64-bit 5.9.9.90, got hit with a few pop-up porn images, before taking over the browser. Beware.

Other than that, I am now successfully updated to 5.9.9.90.
