    Resolved [RESOLVED] Autoupdation of Software on Internet

    Hi,

    I am just wondering if there is any way of updating the software (the program that we develop) in a similar way as yahoo messenger on internet.

    For installing yahoo messenger, a small application is first downloaded; when this application is run, it automatically connects to internet and downloads required files and installs the latest version of the software including the un-installation of older versions.

    Will be thankful for any advice....

    hello Litlewiki,

    many thanks for your response.

    I am actually looking for a non-commercial software that I could readily use for updating my applications.

    thanks

    It is non-commercial, and you can use it for your applications.
