# 0.17.8

ReleasedReleased on October 12, 2016

**Bugfixes:**

-   Fixed `opener of undefined` errors due to `page load` events causing snapshots prior to the `load` event of the remote application. Thanks to everyone who helped pitched in on this one! Fixes [#258](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/258).
    
-   Cypress now correctly sets cookies with `expirationDate` in the past. Chrome did not handle these cookies as documented and our code did not take this into account. We also added a lot more `e2e` tests around this behavior. Fixes [#266](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/266).
    
-   We are now taking additional precautions to prevent Cypress from trashing the wrong folder during an upgrade (with an open project). This was actually fixed in `0.17.7` but the problem was is that during an update, the new version (which was fixed) was still being passed the wrong arguments from the older (broken) application. We've now upgraded `0.17.8` to detect this, and just use the expected default install location of Cypress. If you're concerned, just _close_ your currently open project before updating. Fixes [#265](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/265).
    

**Misc:**

-   When an in app update fails in `linux` we now provide instructions on how to manually update Cypress.
    
-   We now properly take the `maxAge` cookie flag into account and give it preference over the `expires` flag as per the cookie spec.
