Step 3. Distributing

After packaging MyApp for distribution, the various files in the Releases directory are used to distribute MyApp to users.

  • Setup Application - the Setup.exe application is provided to new users to install the current version of MyApp (see Installing for details).
  • Update Files - the RELEASES file, along with versioned full and delta packages, are used by the update process (see Updating for details).

Local File Distribution

For simplicity, this Getting Started guide uses a local file system location for updates. The location is defined in the update location provided to the UpdateManager (see code in Integrating: Basic Updating).

This generally is not practical for updates, unless all your users have access to similar network path where the files could be easily placed.
