Lately I've had to sign in twice to ProSeries 2017 - after being prompted for downloading an update. Is there a glitch with the sign in process?

If you're continuously being prompted to update, but no updates are available, try this.    

Go to your ProWin17>Updates folder and remove all the files except details.htm, then restart ProSeries and see if you have better luck.

I have the same annoying problem, having to sign in twice ever since my most recent update a month ago. I didn't quite understand the answer "ProWin17>updates folder and remove all the files except details.htm" -- can you amplify a bit?

there is a folder under C:\ProWin2017\Updates.   delete all files except details.htm
that should solve issue.
then maybe update again and don't worry about extra files in C:\ProWin2017\Updates
