I think the auto update only works when you are on the current version which is 4. You need to go to the Phoenix site and download the update that will take from 2.5 to the latest version

Phoenix 2.5 update? well.....it won't?

I've. Got the same problem, I had to uninstall Phoenix, when I came to reinstalling, it loads up and runs ok but won't update..
My disc is V2.5, which when I looked on Phoenix website is no longer supported by them, their solution is to purchase a new V4 disc from them at the cost of £12.
I have searched the web for an update for it that will bring it up to V3.0. All I have found is a V1.0 copy with updates the bring it up to V2.5 (the same as my disc).
So at the moment it is buy the new V4.0 disc for £12 or try to borrow a copy to install on your PC then update to latest updates.
The search goes on.
If I find anything I'll update this post.
Think I will just buy new disc, with all the free updates the Phoenix has released over the past few years I've had my money's worth.

V2.5 not supported anymore, only V3 onwards I think.

In January 2011 I downloaded phoenixRC_ANY_30m_update.exe. The file is 701MB so pretty big. I guess this is the file very early adopters of Phoenix need to do a clean build.

I think the link on HeliFreak is broken, I did a search and some found files, I'm now V4.0p

How can you say that?
When you compare Phoenix to the Xbox/playstation games like COD modern warfare & Black ops where instead of just being an update you pay £40 for the new game each year?
