Can't update Appium Desktop to v 1.14.0 on Windows.

[hke14]

Appium or Appium Desktop?

This is an issue concerning updating Appium desktop, so I believe it is unrelated to the Appium CLI.

• [X] I have verified that my issue does not occur with Appium and should be investigated as an Appium Desktop issue

The problem

The new Appium Desktop v 1.14.0 update has been released, but I can't update it when I click on install now as it gives the error "Could not find squirrel" (Very confusing error message to see first thing in the morning as I didn't know what squirrel is and immediately thought of the animal)

Environment

• I am running Appium Desktop version <1.13.0>.
• I am on (pick one):
  • [ ] Mac
  • [X] Windows
  • [ ] Linux

It appears that 1.14 was taken down. I even got a popup on 1.14 to update ;d

I unpublished it. Will re-publish later with a fix.

@dpgraham when can we expect 1.14.0 build for appium desktop?

[dpgraham]

I'll do that this week. Sorry for the delay.

@dpgraham Is there a new ETA? Sadly i switched back to 1.13, but need 1.14. Actually i'm operating with beta 1.

This is happening still while attempting to upgrade to Appium Desktop v1.15.0-1. Is there any idea when this will be resolved?

This is an electron's Windows installer related item. You can install the newer one with downloading exe from GitHub release page as a workaround.

"can not find squirrel" is this issue. (for searching)

[Raghavendra617]

this issue is still reproducible on appium 1.13.0

I'm using appium 1.14.0-beta.1 as it works with my current device setup, still seeing this.
