Wrong/old Intel Extreme Tuning Utility is on Download Center

TBebe1 — Sun, 03 May 2020 03:51:21 GMT

Hi, seems like Version: 6.5.2.38 was not uploaded correctly on https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29183/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU-

Although the page says 6.5.2.38, the actual file and release notes are for v 6.5.1.355, an old version. The updater from inside the program also does not work.

Please check this and upload the correct file. Thanks!

Interesting...

6.5.2.38 date 4/30/2020 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29183/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU

6.5.1.360 date 10/4/2019 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24075

Both say latest.

I keep a couple of versions of XTU. 6.5.1.360 is the latest, as far as I can tell.

I think that they keep 6.5.1.360 around since per the release notes "6.5.1.360 is the last version of XTU that supports the legacy profiles database."

There was a 6.5.1.371 that was also uploaded. I saw it there last week. Basically, last week, both 6.5.1.371 and 6.5.1.360 were available for download.

Looks like 6.5.2.38 was supposed to replace it as the latest version. However, it seems like an old version (6.5.1.355) was uploaded by mistake and mislabeled as 6.5.2.38.

Sorry, it's all pretty convoluted with all the version numbers.

I double checked:

https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:0O2AW0i2jYcJ:https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29183/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU-+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

6.5.1.371 Date: 11/9/2019 was the previous latest version. It is still on Google's cache, as above.

It seems like Intel intended to update 6.5.1.371 to 6.5.2.38, but mistakenly uploaded 6.5.1.355, which is even older than 6.5.1.360 (which is the version that I suspect they keep available for download to support legacy profiles).

The property details on that one still says 355.

I have informed the community manager about these discrepancies with XTU and it is being addressed.
