When a user launches the program, I want it to test if an update is
available.
You see many examples of this method to update. (Quickbooks, Norton
AntiVirus, online games)
I have a method already to determine if an update is available and download
it to the end-users computer. It does not automatically run the update.
The plan is let the user choose to update when they go to launch the
program. I was thinking of a loader screen that pops up first and allows
the user to continue.
If the user decides to run the update, this loader screen would need to
launch the setup.exe.
My problem is you cannot update a program you are currently running. What
is the best way to launch the setup.exe, and quit the running program? I
need to be certain that the program has shutdown before the update can
begin.
Thanks in advance.
