  • Allston, Braintree, version numbers, installations not working

I wonder if I'm missing something obvious, I cannot get Sonar Platinum to update correctly through Command Center.
I've already updated "Anderton Collection", "SONAR Help and Tutorials", "Boz... ProChannel Collection", "Cakewalk Sound Center" and "NYC Showroom Collection"  all of which showed yellow lights, needing updates. They all appear to have updated successfully and are showing green lights now.
When I update Sonar and it appears to run the installer correctly but Command Center continues to show a yellow light and that I need the "Allston update 1 (21.01.254)".  Also, not seeing new version number/s in Sonar; my x64 version shows 21.01.00 build 37, x86 version shows 21.00.01 build 254. I have both x64 and x86 installed because I need x86 for older projects with 32-bit plugins that won't work in x64. (How does CCC handle DAWs with x86 and x64 installed?)
I'm not seeing the Braintree update at all in CCC. I'm assuming the Allston update needs to install before the Braintree update. (Am I correct? Also, curious if the naming convention signifies update A (Allston), B (Braintree), etc.)
I have Command Center and both x64 and x86 versions of Sonar Platinum set to always run as administrator.
Have rebooted and tried again, several times, and always CCC shows yellow light and Allston update needed for Sonar.
My PC is new: Windows 7 Professional, Intel i7 @4.00 GHz, 16 GB ram, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760, MOTU 896 mk3, MOTU midi expressXT, Roland A500 Pro.
TIA

Problem solved...
installed the Braintree update manually for both x86 and x64 versions of Sonar from the Command Center download folder.
Sonar Platinum x64 still shows v.21.01.00 build 37 (must be the Braintree ver). Now Sonar x86 shows same ver. number and CCC has green light, up to date.
CCC must only update 1 ver (x64 I assume), but the yellow light must've been for the x86 installation that wasn't updating.
I hope Cakewalk comes up with a way for CCC to handle installs for x86 AND x64 versions on the same workstation.
