AutoUpdater | Generic autoupdate component used by HubTurbo

The ElectronNET AutoUpdater seems to be posting notifications to Windows that I haven't asked for. Along with the ones I did ask for, I now have duplicates (from the perspective of my QA people).

To make matters worse the default messages use the internal AppId rather than the display name of the App which just looks unprofessional.

Forgive the redactions, but notice the following:

• Outlook displays a Group Title and icon; I can't seem to replicate this with ElectronNET always displaying some sort of internally calculated name, not one that I have specified anywhere in any configs. MS Teams and Slack both display nicely so it must be possible in Electron.
• The first message at 9.40 AM is my one, raise during the event ElectronNET.API.Electron.AutoUpdater.OnUpdateDownloaded; the second one "A new update is ready to install" seems to be coming from ElectronNET itself and the subtext includes the AppID rather than the display name for the App.

Does anyone know how to overcome these limitations? I'm happy to fork the ElectronNET cli and override some of the build process if that's what's needed but these seem like fairly obvious needs for the platform as a whole.

Maybe I just missed something in the docs?

I'm writing a software and trying to implement an automatic updater into it as a separate application. I have both the software itself and the updater under the same solution.

When an update is available from a server, my program prompts the user to update, this part works.

I fail to call the updater app and then exit only the first program.

This is what I have not:

I am standing up a fresh install on Ubuntu 20 LTS. Following the standard install doc. Looks like it isn't working as expected.

I'm using AutoUpdater.NET for updating my applications. It's a great library. My program collects data for inventory system-data, sent it to database and than close the application.

When I update an Electron app using the electron-builder autoUpdater, all the file storage I defined is overwritten. What settings do I need to make these files persist?

Here is an MCVE example (for the main process):

I have a problem with Autoupdater.Net for C#. My program starts from C:\Systeminventory and finds an update. The program is downloading it and closes the application. All fine. But when installing the update the updater hangs by extracting. Nothing happens.

If I move the application files to C:\Systeminventory\folder and start it, the updater download the update and extract it to C:\Systeminventory. That's not what I want. I want to start the app from C:\Systeminventory and want the updated files into C:\Systeminventory. It seems that the updater can't override the old files, but why?

The app is closed and not running. I checked this in the Task Manager. I tested it on my private pc and I'm admin. What did I do wrong?

I am getting this error whilst using the latest version of Electron. I have nodeIntegration set to true in my main javascript file. I have copy and pasted this code from a working Electron application but it doesn't seem to work with my new app.

Electron Version: ^12.0.0

My main JS

• Version: 22.9.1

• Electron Version:
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): 11.1.0 (stable)

• Target: mac OS 11.1

• Electron Updater Version: 4.3.5

I set my S3 to private () and then put the following in my update script:

I'am working on a desktop app using electron everything is working well, except for the autoUpdater.setFeedURL() method, it returns always this exception : "Update check failed. The server sent an invalid response. Try again later."
