Update project using zip files?

Hi Team,

I plan to use Advanced Updater to download new versions of my product. Is it possible to use zip files instead of exe files and still have the updater.exe unzip the file and run the setup?

I modified my Updates Configuration File so that the URL points to a zip file. The file is being downloaded, however, I get the following error when updater.exe tries to "launch" the just downloaded file:
update-error.png
update-error.png (10.12 KiB) Viewed 2044 times
Is there a way to tell the installer to unzip the file first and the run the exe?

Best regards,
Simon

Hello Simon,

Unfortunately, this is not supported.

More information about this can be found in the following thread:
