Bet Angel V1.54.2 - Greening Fix from API Issues
This only difference in the code between 1.54.1 and 1.54.2 is the new handling for betfair's rounding restriction. That code doesn't even run if the stake or price determines that the restriction does not apply. We know that this emergency fix had to be done at betfair as they were worried about the stability of the whole exchange if they didn't intervene, so perhaps they've adjusted other internal settings to ease the strain on their servers.
Thanks for the reply.
I think i'll try on windows 10 tomorrow and see if that makes any difference as im wondering if its just affecting people on windows 7.
I'm surprised so few people have mentioned it as its quite a noticeable change. If it is the new normal due to Betfair changing something their end it is going to take some getting used to.

What are you looking to have 'fixed'? No one officially supports Windows 7 any more but if you have all the latest service packs for Windows and ciphers for Internet Explorer 11 then you may still be able to login with Bet Angel. We are not aware of any of the discussions in this thread being a problem with a specific version of Windows, we're talking about betfair exchange changes & issues.
Edit: Looking at our server, your last login was with v1.54.1, so in that case, yes if you can currently login with Windows 7 then just install the v.1.54.2c build.

Oh ok - that's just because we can't officially support Windows 7 anymore, but if it works for you, that's fine. I would encourage you to upgrade to Windows 10 this year though as it may just stop working completely at some point as we update third-party libraries etc.
Thanks for the replys about the clunkiness of Bet Angel since the update, and also for for asking Betfair about the issue.
It will be interesting to see if a reply is forthcoming from them.
It does seem a common problem for many and was surprised even more regular users hadn't highlighted it.
When you have been watching a screen daily even the slightest change is noticed.
I will monitor tonight.
Thanks again.
