Shortcut not working after update

Open AR1ES opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

We have our program, packaged into msix. But some users are still on Windows 7.

We made a built-in auto-update mechanism that simply launches msix when the new version comes out. As I understand it, the msix-core does not have an auto-update function.

After each update the desktop shortcut stops working. Users create a shortcut themselves from the start menu.

MsixCore does not have an auto-update function. Can you be more specific about the desktop shortcut? Are you manually updating on Windows 7 using MsixCore?

I possible to implement on future the auto-update function on msix core? like on windows 10? If not, there's any way to code the own app to check using the URL ?
