Downgrade probs with desktop mgr: app loader retrieves old version files thru internet

Question

really this is for desktop mgr 4.6 and 4.7 but i could not write to thread some time ago i purchased documents to go premium. unfortunately at first dataviz was insiting it would only be available OTA, after install, and later after os upgrade to patch .055 of RIM OS 4.5, at first it wanted to downgrade documents premium to go to the base edition that is included in the OS. then i was using desktop mgr 4.2 or 4.3 this cost me some 20 eur for reupgrade OTA, great, guys then i found the same solution which another thread quotes, i.e. to prevent downgrading by renaming the base alx/cod file for docs to go in the loader directory (common files, rim , shared or such, also there is a cache directory) this helped for a while then i met this text by dataviz, which was suggesting RIM had "fixed" the downgrading issue in desktop mgr 4.7 well cheers after installing it (and i have two pcs, on both of which i had to field the same obnoxious tragedy), the device was telling me it wanted to downgrade documents to go. dataviz smartly suggested i should rename the backupfile of docs to go, reboot the device and delete docs to go base edition and reboot again. now obviously, the base edition can t be deleted, since it is part of the OS base of RIM OS 4.5 (after uninstall) but even better: i was NOT able to reupgrade (i now had some desktop installer files for the premium edition) NOT AT ALL even reupgrading OTA would bring back the same stupid !requirement" from desktop mgr to downgrade docs to go dataviz was maintaining, their "fix" was crucial and works. but it does not. some 30 hours later, by accident i found the cause. my BB has OTA switched off. NOWHERE on the pc could i found traces of the old docs to go loader... really nowhere ? no, ALMOST NOWHERE. in temporary internet files there suddenly were some. and it had a url. so the app loader is trying to retrieve the old files from the BB OS vault. i unplugged the pc from the internet, and viola, the upgrade works again. and, sure enough, reconnecting it to the internet, the app loader immediately wants to downgrade the SW again. how abt fixing this. the user should be able to control, what version he wants to have, and also there should be control over whether i want the app loader to retrieve SW from the internet. (and of course dataviz should supply their SW for desktop installers, not just OTA, since the adventure cost me some 40 eur in total for useless OTA reupgrades, which i am not responsible for)

Answer 1

not exactly true is maybe this problem.
but in those 30 hours i was NOT able to erase the application AT ALL
pull on battery or legs. it CANNOT be highlighted for deletion, even after clearing cache and uninstalling pdf to go and documents to go either thru options adv options applications or thru app mgr.
but it absolutely can t be that RIM is leaving this matter as it is
