On the website, where I put the files of the first version, and each of
the files updates

If in \CREN folder (1.png attachment) put the original installer, where
I put different versions of the updates that I generated in the \web
folder web update project (ver2, ver3, ..., verN). I must have a web
directory for each Web Update project, like update1, update2, update3,
...., updateN, with .exe, .000000x and manifest file. Each WebUpdate Each
Web update project is generated from the original, only changing the
version and files changed or added. I have to copy in the installation
directory, the file wcheck.exe like wupdate.exe. Why every time I
install tells me: App.ini not find the file, if it really is defined in
each project and it exists.

Thank,

Carlos

Please forgive me, Carlos, because I'm not an expert on web updates.
But I don't understand what you're trying to do.

Normally, you want your customers to have the latest version of your
program.

So you publish version 1.

Then you create an update and put the new manifest file and web update
installer for version 2 on your web server.

Then you create another update. You remove the version 2 web update
installer and manifest, and put the version 3 manifest and web update
installer on your server.

When your customer checks for an update, he will be updated to version 3
regardless of whether he's presently on version 1 or on version 2.

If you're trying to keep various revisions available (instead of updating
everybody to the latest), then you'll need a different strategy.
