I would use "in." Possibly "on." Never "at."

Google doesn't look for exact strings unless you surround the text in quotation marks. Even then, it's not a useful resource for finding relative usage.

I'd go with 'during'.

 

[teechar]

I would only use "in".

 

[Raymott]

I would only use "in".

That depends on whether "will be fixed" means that the problems "will undergo the activity of fixing during the next update" or that the problems "will be absent in the next update."
"The problems will be fixed in/during the next update" has two meanings, as does "update" itself, which is either the process or the product.

 

[teechar]

I think it's generally assumed that "fixed in the next update" means when the updated version is rolled out, the problem will not be there.

 

[emsr2d2]

I've seen "via the next update" used.

 

[Rover_KE]

I might also use 'at [the time of] the next update'.

 

[euncu]

I might also use 'at [the time of] the next update'.

Do you drop [the time of] and use just "at"?

 

[GoesStation]

I'd stick with "in the next update." That's common parlance in the industry.
