Add auto updates via microsoft OneClick

I suggest auto updates should be added since not many people manually go and update the app.

Auto updates as in it updates in the background without users clicking the "Update now" banner?

I looked into MSIX and other things such as getting this on the Microsoft Store, but haven't gone far in packaging it for that. OneClick installers are cool and all, but didn't let me install required runtimes until first launch. Using NSIS allowed me to step around that and automate a lot more.

Is updating without launching the account switcher explicitly, or updating when it's exited something people want? I know of some software that has this functionality like JDownloader.

You can take the appoach that visual studio code does it updates once you close the app and checks for updates on startup.
