Updates Config File for EXE - how do you create it?

The tutorial The Updates Configuration File for an EXE Application does not show how to use AI to create/modify the configuration file using the AI tools. Instead, it just gives three examples of the file itself.

The implication here seems to be that the only way you can create/modify an update configuration file for an EXE is by directly editing the configuration file itself.



PS This is part of the tutorial Creating a New Updates File where there is a link For an example...if you are using an EXE which will take you to The Updates Configuration File For An EXE Application.

Re: Updates Config File for EXE - how do you create it?

Hi,

Please note that the updates configuration file can be created through an updates configuration project. The approach explained in the Create Updates File how-to can be applied for any update (it doesn't matter if it's a patch, a MSI, an EXE or any other type of file).
