On command upgrade (patch?)

So looking for things down the road and trying to prepare for them now.

There will likely be a time where we want to patch or upgrade our product on the users side. I did see that you can use the updater, so that works for scheduling automatic updates. However, is there a way I can get closer to real time to trigger an update. Im not quite sure if patch is the correct word. But it is definitely an upgrade. This all needs to be able to be done on our end without any user intervention.

Do you have anything like that? I saw the patcher which comes with enterprise. But I didn't see on there if it allows for a force on demand upgrade

Re: On command upgrade (patch?)

Hi,

In order to force the installation of an update (major upgrade or patch), you can install it silently without elevation. For this, you need to implement the steps described in the "How to handle updates without elevation" article.

The update can be triggered through a scheduled task or directly by your application if you integrate the updater with the application.
