Autoupdate?

Open snhv opened this issue 6 years ago • 9 comments

Hello can the program autoupdate itself or we have to download and run everytime? Thanks.

Hello @snhv, for the moment I have not planned an automatic update mechanism. I plan to rewrite the application as a GUI that could then be updated automatically but not for now.

Perhaps take control / poke maintainer of Chocolatey package? https://chocolatey.org/packages/windowsspyblocker

Would be ok to you @kkzinger if I take control of this package ?

When I use it for first time for using all kind of full blocking ip address via Firewall then Windows Updates or Microsoft Store is stopping working and I get message error code '0x80072EFD' and it turned out it working after I removed like rollback to unblocking everything after I used it. so is there specific ip addresses after I use it full blocking again but I need to know ip addresses where I can still continue to get windows updates/microsoft store?

Thanks

@theluckyman Please read SUPPORT page to report/create an issue. This one is not linked to Windows Update but AutoUpdate feature for WindowsSpyBlocker. Thanks.

@asvc I now maintain Chocolatey package and push it automatically though GitHub Actions.

But is updating the package also triggering to reapply the rules?

Hello. Autoupdate would be nice. Maybe an option for the WindowsSpyBlocker.exe to install on Program Files and check for new IP lists and the program itself. It could run on every boot, day, week, month... Thanks in advance.
