Not enabling the updater is normal

Same thing as in the other issue, please rerun it with the verbose flag and post the new logs :)

Same thing as in the other issue, please rerun it with the verbose flag and post the new logs :) Adding it doesn't make much difference

Hmm, that's unfortunate. I won't have access to my computer for a few days so can't really triage this myself but the 3 things i'd try are:

1. remove productName
2. make bundle.identifier lowercase only
3. add a 512x512 icon.png file to the icon array

1. not a tauri-action issue
2. closed due to inactivity
