4.7.2 Project Assets Updater repeats itself 3 times now with same Updates "needed"

Wappler Version : 4.7.2
Operating System : Mac M1 Monterey 12.3
Server Model: localhost
Database Type: MySQL 5.7.34
Hosting Type: My own Mamp PHP 8.0.8

Expected behavior

What do you think should happen?

I expect the new Updater to only run once & when Wappler is re-started this Window should not appear again.

Actual behavior

I started up 4.7.1 in the last hour. I run with Experimental features enabled and Beta files installed. The App Updater pop-up first appeared while I saw that Wappler 4.7.2 was available. I first ran the updater. As shown:

I saw a bunch of updated files get loaded. Then I launched the 4.7.2 Update. I waited for the 4.7.2 update to download, auto-install. Then I restarted Wappler as 4.7.2.

This same Updater showed up with what appeared to be the same number and category of Assets . Using the Beta Update channel again --

I clicked UPDATE. Let it do its thing. Saved current state. Closed Wappler to check on what happened on Re-Start.
Now I see that without "Force Update" enabled for "App Connect & Components" and "Server Connect Framework" I just have 1 Bootstrap 5 file to be updated.

I assumed that I am usually correct to ENABLE "Force Update". When I do that I suddenly see my now familiar full family of Update files supposedly detected as still not installed/updated. Including adding 2 more Bootstrap 5 files.

This behavior is definitely a Bug.

You really don’t have to use the force update option to do regular updates.

And yes on each Wappler update itself new files will be added, so there will be things to update.

But why does the Updater keep showing the same files need to be updated after I have chosen Force Update?

I even save all files and close Wappler 4.7.2 and restart it – thinking that the Project Updater has to first check the installed versions in my own Wappler installation before deciding How Many and of Which Files my own installation is lacking.

But the Project Updater doesn’t look at my history log or whatever is used to inspect what still needs to be updated for my own Installation.

This Project Updater should be Trusted. I should not see it telling me over & over that my Wappler installation is missing the latest versions of all these files.

Because you forced first an update of older Wappler 4.7.1 - then installed a new Wappler which naturally bring new files - hence the new Updater showing the new files.
