I am developing a Windows Form application in C#, this is a slightly large application, I would like to know what technology I use to update this application on the client’s computer. I tried to implement Clickonce, but I saw that it installs the system in the users folder and not in program files. Does anyone know any platform I can implement in my project? My idea is to leave the files updated in some ftp or virtual directory (IIS) making the application installed on the client’s machine checks if there are updates in this "Virtual directory or FTP" if you have these files. If any of you know anything other than Clickonce please help me. Thank you

  • The problem is that the system can be on many machines, it is impossible to have to configure the GPO for the machines. You would have another solution for this?

  • Why not? The GPO runs itself by the domain controller when the user logs in to it.

  • Maybe I don’t quite understand this concept. Let’s assume that I am an MSI installer with a 1.0.0.0 version of system (for example), let’s also assume that this system is installed on more than 500 machines. When I make a correction I will have to send version 1.0.0.1 in a virtual directory or FTP, automating the system installed on more than 500 machines will have to see these updates, download them and replace the current system with the new one. Setting up the GPO will be possible to do this?

  • If there is version increment, the GPO updates the system on the 500 machines. You just need to set up the package to support this update feature.

  • Right. Thank you very much. I will implement.
