Integrate the updater without writing code

Hello,

I have followed the steps indicated in https://www.advancedinstaller.com/user- ... ation.html
but when I install the generated version the shorcut instead of pointing to the updater calling it with the parameters I added in the shortcut, points to my application.exe without parameters.

I don't understand how this is suposed to work. I was expecting a shortcut pointing to the updater with the parameters I configured.

I have attached an image of the advanced installer shortcut configuration and the shortcut that is installed in the target system.

Thanks very much for your help

P.S.: Before using the updater I had a shortcut that pointed to myapplication with the same name.

Re: Integrate the updater without writing code

It is ok, I had two shortcuts, one in the Application shortcut folder and the other in the desktop.
I had modified one but I was looking for the modification on the other. :oops:
