How to update Max for Live in Ableton 11 on windows
I'm aware that you go to preferences->file folder-> max application -> browse, but the .exe doesn't show up in the file broswer. I've seen a couple of youtube videos of people doing this succesfully in MAC but not on WINDOWS.
The fact that the .exe doesn't show up in the broswer for selecting the application is demonstrated in this picture:

Also when I select that max 8 folder as a whole I get this:

Please help!! How do I do!!!
(im currently on Max 8.1.11 and am trying to update to 8.2.2 which I've already downloaded and installed)
That error popup shows a different folder (a Start Menu folder) from the actual Max install folder.
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I didn't notice that difference because it took me to a very similar looking place with a 'max 7' and 'max 8' file. Just tried with the max 8 folder in program files and it now works. Thanks for the idiot-check!!
