I am starting to create desktop applications in Visual Studio C# and came to me the following question, after generating an application executable and install on another computer is it possible to make changes in this application without having to uninstall what is already working? As if it were an "update package". If it exists as, someone could tell me or post some link or fonts that I can search on the subject. From now on I thank anyone who can help.

Sincerely yours,

  • You refer to a Windows Forms, WPF or UWP application?

  • it’s not very clear what you need. See if it helps you: https://answall.com/a/277495/69359

  • @Leandroangelo, at first application Windows Form.

  • @Q.Wesley Now missing you include in your question: How is the installation done and what kind of update you intend to do

  • @Rovannlinhalis, it goes something like this, if I’m an application that has a simple screen and then I’d like to change something on that screen (her name for example), I would have to generate an entire executable to reinstall the application on the user’s machine or if I have a means to just upgrade, passed a file containing the changes. I’ll look at the links you posted, thank you.

  • you will have to send the compiled files again... the link I put is an option to update these files in the client, but, it will be a little more complicated =]

  • @Leandroangelo, I’m going to make these changes to the question.

You can use the Autoupdater.NET nuget, with this nuget through the Assembly version that you can modify in the project properties or in the Assemblyinfo file in the fields:

[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.0.0")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("1.0.0.0")]

github on how to use nuget is: https://github.com/ravibpatel/AutoUpdater.NET

and for installation you can use the program Inno setup, it is quite intuitive, this program will generate an executable that makes the installation of your system.
