I opened HXEdit and it told me an update was available.
I clicked on it and followed the instructions.
All went well.
I then went to read the notes and it mentioned downloadiong HXEdit 2.9.2.
I checked HXEdit and it was still on 2.9>(I updated Edit at this point)

Everything seems fine......should I be concerned?

Yes, you should be concerned.  The Line 6 instructions for the editor are very confusing right now. If you look in the Line6 Downloads section for the Helix there is an HX Edit 2.92 download available that has update note instructions to download the 2.90 version.  It would be difficult for this to be written in a more confusing manner.  Line 6 is offering a 2.92 version of HX Edit with explicit instructions that you should download the earlier 2.90 version.  That can't be right. That text in "Step 1" should be corrected to "2.92".  At least the direct links they provided to the HX Edit download point to the  2.92 version.This mistake in the "Step 1" instructions is probably a remnant from the hotfix from before when they only had a 2.90 version of HX Edit but had later hotfix versions, e.g. 2.91 of the firmware out but not a new version yet of the editor.

 

I would open your current version of HX Edit and go to the Help --> About tab and check your HX Edit version. Mine reads "HX Edit 2.92". If it does not match your firmware version then you need to download the corresponding version of HX Edit as well as following the rest of the 2.92 firmware update instructions including the one about restoring from backup.

You should download and install HX Edit v2.92. When you run HX Edit v2.92 log into your account. You will be alerted if you need to update the firmware again.
