Location of updates

[NewsArchive]

Although it works for most of our customers with the program running in just
one location, I would like to have the update program not install to
wherever the last program was installed, but to where the current program is
running... what can I do to make this happen.. it would help a lot in my
testing, and it would be better for some that have the program running in 2
or more places on their computer (like me for one).

Thanks,

If you use the "Store Properties in INI File" option in "Install Web Update
Client", then you should be able to check for updates from whatever location
you want. And in your web update installer package, replace the "Detect
Previous Version" function with a function that detects the current folder
and you should be done.
