For quite some time every time I upgrade EasySocial I cannot do it from the backend auto update. On step four it says "Downloading Installation Files... Failed Please download the new launcher from our site at
http://stackideas.com/dashboard".
I understand a new launcher being needed for major releases. Having to install a new launcher on every release defeats the purpose of ES's backend auto updater.

Upgrading with the launcher from ES 1.3.17 to ES 1.3.18 worked just fine. I kept the test site as ES 1.3.17 so that you can see the issue.
P.S. Well done with the new upgrade interface in ES 1.3.18, quite visually pleasing!

As always, thanks for being our Joomla heroes.
