Hi,
What are the options for running web updater.
I see that I can enter the number of days to check.
What if it is 0 days - will it never check?
Can I tell my users that they need to run the web updater.
If I tell them to run the webupdater because there is an update that they need to have, how do I tell them to run webupdater on their end?
Thanks,
Ron Jolda

Ron,

If it is set to "0" then wupdate.exe will always check for updates if your application (or your user) launches wupdate.exe. If it is set to, say, "30" then it will check for updates every 30 days (even if wupdate.exe is called 100 times per day).

BTW, you should use the wucheck.exe client to avoid the elevation prompt on an UAC-aware operating system and handle the update check interval from your own application.

Hope this helps.

Friedrich
