This is a known problem which we tried but could not avoid at the time - the code signing certificate for Open Rails expired and the new one had a different set of properties than the updater was expecting, so it rejects it.

I've got a probable fix for this in the future but cannot retroactively fix the problem when updating from an old version. :(

Fixed in X4174.

You can update from X4174 back to the stable 1.2 version - it'll ask if you're sure, rather than just failing as before.
