Update From web

rcarrier · 30th October 2009, 23:55

Can anyone refer me to a method or utility that will allow my user to check for program updates and download the update from the web and install it. For example something like the HP Update program that comes with your computer.

When the user logs in the program would check a website for updates, the install.

Any help or suggestions appreciated

Thanks,
Richard

There is no prefab solution for this in NSIS. You can create the functionality yourself by using the inetc plugin (or other internet plugins), and versioncompare. It'll take a lot of coding and testing, I'm sure.
