About WiseUpdate
¾
WiseScript Package Editor only
WiseUpdate® offers an easy method for updating your application on your end users’
computers, ensuring that end users are always working with the most current version of
your application. Based on settings you specify on the WiseUpdate page, WiseUpdate
installs a small client application (WiseUpdt.exe) along with your application. You can
place a shortcut to this application in the end user’s Startup group so that it checks for
updates when the destination computer is started or an end user logs on to Windows.
WiseUpdate Client checks for newer versions of your application at the Web location you
specified. If it finds a new installation, it downloads and runs it.
WiseUpdate, by itself, does not deploy the current version of your application; it simply
adds a Web-based update mechanism to your end users’ computers. The first time you
configure WiseUpdate, you enable that version to check for later versions over the
Internet. Once WiseUpdate is integrated into your application, it simplifies the upgrade
process for you and your end users for future updates to your application. See
Configuring the WiseUpdate Page
on page 87.
Note
This documentation covers both WiseScript Package Editor and WiseScript Editor.
WiseScript Editor contains the same scripting interface as WiseScript Package Editor, but
it does not contain the Installation Expert interface or other installation development
tools. Therefore, some of the information in this document does not apply to WiseScript
Editor.
