    Hi I have used Visual Studio 2010 Express to develop a Windows application. I have published the program and the users install it from a shared location on a central computer. I have also done several updates that I have published without any problems. When the users run the program it first checks for updates and so far it has always picked up if there was an update and installed it. The program is installed from a folder '\\MyServer\EPR\Installation\Install\' and the update location is '\\MyServer\EPR\Installation\Updates\'. This morning I tried to roll out a new update. I copied the published files to the Updates folder as I have always done, but when I ran the application it checked for updates, but then it still ran the old version and did not install the new version. The old version is 4.0.3.1 and the new version is 4.0.4.0. Any ideas on what the problem can be? At this stage my morning has been a complete waste and I feel very frustrated. Regards. Kobus

      How does it do this?

      Without seeing your code it is impossible to guess.

      It's time for a new signature.
