What is the issue?

My Windows 11 Enterprise machine seems to have stopped the Ollama Automatic Updates with version 0.17.1.

No idea if that is related but, lately, I've been seeing a .VBS (Visual Basic Script) "Open With..." dialogue box upon every OS Restart (I don't restart very often but rather Hybernate my machine each evening, unless Security Updates require an OS Restart). It is a Company laptop with strict Group Policies and a Security Framework.

The Ollama App is active in the System Tray (the icon is right-clickable and brings the context menu normally, all the options work, just... It stopped nudging me to Update when there's a new version.) The Auto-Download Updates option is On and I haven't touched that or anything else, so I suppose that it is rather a local Environmental issue on my machine.

Relevant log output

Update: After manually downloading and updating to version 0.20.4(?), now the Autoupdate worked again and Ollama got updated to v.0.20.6.
