Actual Updater is a program that was created to help software developers easily provide the latest versions of their applications to users. Implement an update functionality into your Windows application to keep it up-to-date. With Actual Updater, your users will be able to check for updates manually (for example, using the "Help \ Check for Updates" menu from your app). You can also configure the update program to automatically check for updates - on application startup, on Windows startup, daily, weekly, or monthly.
Actual Updater supports fully automatic updates. With this feature, your application can update itself automatically - when a new version is available, the updater will download and install it without user interaction.
Actual Updater uses smart update notifications. If the user declines the update prompt dialog twice, the program may suggest the user to not being notified about this version, or to change the frequency of updates.
The process of adding the update function into your application is very easy. All you need to do is add two files into your app's folder, and upload one tiny file at your website.
