wyUpdate Description

Ensure users always have the latest versions of your software wyUpdate is the open source updater that's included with wyBuild. wyUpdate checks for updates, downloads any that are available, and safely updates your program. It handles in stride obstacles like Windows Vista's and Windows 7's User Account Control (UAC), limited-user problems, and many other subtleties. wyUpdate can patch files using the VCDIFF delta-patch format. It also can handle errors, and rollback updates if there is unrecoverable error. wyUpdate is written in C# and is licensed under the BSD License. Features: wyBuild Features Use wyBuild to manage versions of your software, customize wyUpdate with your branding & languages, and build update patches. Easy to use drag & drop Just drag your files & folders and drop them into wyBuild. Creates shortcuts to your program files You can create shortcuts on the Desktop or the Program Files menu by simply right clicking a file in wyBuild and clicking "Create Shortcut". TurboPatch: Create Tiny Update Patches wyBuild's TurboPatch algorithm is the easiest way to create software patches. It scans the changes between versions of your product and generates industry standard VCDIFF patches (a.k.a. delta patches) to deliver to your users. For example, updating the bare minimum installation of Nero Burning ROM from version 8.3.2.1 to version 8.3.6.0 (without using wyBuild's TurboPatch) generated an enormous 53.8 megabyte file. Using wyBuild's TurboPatch this update size was reduced to a minuscule 1.4 megabytes; small enough to fit on an old floppy disk! Execute a full range of scripts (*.bat, *.cmd, *.exe, *.msi) wyBuild lets you select which files you wish to execute files before & after installation. You can even include files that will be extracted to the temp folder, executed during the update, and deleted after the update has completed. Modify the Registry Changing the registry is just as easy as adding files. With wyBuild you can manage which Registry keys are created, edited, and removed upon installation of your update. The same goes with Registry values - giving you the ability to delete, edit, or add values of any type (string, binary, or integer data).
