We use it here to keep multiple applications up to date. The biggest
deployment is 200+ computers to more than 50 remote locations.  I have
had only a few problems. The biggest is if someone has the application
open and it is updating the files and then they close the application.
At least I think that is the problem.  Every now and then the result is
that a computer gets half-updated and then the application doesn't
start. It is easy to fix by pointing the appstart.config back to the old
version directory and opening it back up.

Subject: [DOTNET-WINFORMS] Experiences with App Updater

Are app is currently no touched deployed from a web server.

We are considering using the App Updater.  Can those who have used it,
or
are using it, report their experiences with it, the good, the bad and
the
ugly?

Thanks,
