An fix for Thorium updates on Windows 10/11.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Windows doesn't have auto-update.
Describe the solution you'd like, including relevant patches or source Winget and Microsoft store is an idea or you can replicate the chrome method by make the browser check for updates and install automatically from the git. Brave, Edge and all others have their own updater integrated from the browser himself.
Winget is similar to sudo apt wich Winget is a package manager maintained by Microsoft running on CMD. Wich is useful for people who install software for developping stuffs such React apps has example.
Microsoft Store is another one where any developper could publish and let's user have their apps stay updated on the time. Somehow you may comply with the TOS of Microsoft to keep the app available.
Has i know, currently only Linux users can keep their browsers up to date. Soo i guess there a lot to do for it. Maybe you can check your browser source code and find the chrome updater system and try to figure out if you can link your git for the browser to check updates and automatically install updates. This could help a bit.
Did you read the FAQ? https://thorium.rocks/faq
You can try using scoop. In addition, the auto-update module in Chrome is closed source and not open to Chromium.
For auto-update module you have to code it like Microsoft and Brave did for their browser and link it to the appropriate git repo. But i understand what's you think. Unfortunately this seem not enough user friendly for people who try to degoogolize their experience. Has i remember, Thorium executablae installation file seem have the necessary to integrate the auto-update if Alex could figure out if his installer executable could has well update the browser in same time. I think this could work. Just make the installer on each startup of the browser to check the git repo updates, download and automatically install it. This can save times. DIscord and others electrons clients have their own auto-update in seperate executable. Just needs a solution for this.
