Updater creating "Updates" folder

Hi

I see that when the updater executes and connects to the update URL and downloads an update, an "Updates" folder in Start->Programs->MyProg. It also adds the *.AIU file as a sub-item of the "Updates" folder. Is it possible to stop this menu folder from being created?

Regards

Re: Updater creating "Updates" folder

Hi,

Please note that the path of the downloads folder can be set in the Updater page. Therefore, you can set it to a more discrete location, for example the default one:

Code: Select all

[AppDataFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\updates\
This will be resolved to a folder under "Application Data".
