Thanks for mentioning. I've already thought of this but I wasn't careful enough - 2.4.1 was released on 06/11 and latest patch on 06/09 so I was happy ... because I didn't notice 1 year difference 
Regards,
Aljaz

Quick question,

Have you updated to the latest patch version of RTKLib? The standard
download is not the latest version. You must download and install from
the download page, and then you have to download the patch from the
support page here: http://www.rtklib.com/rtklib_support.htm
No.75 in the support page is the patch which will update all of the
programs and it could solve your problem.
