Click the "TryIt" button below to launch a test application installer containing a small "Hello World" example program.
When you run 'Hello World' you will see a button which lets you check for updates. If you have the Web Update Wizard running, Version 1.00 will be upgraded to Version 2.00 using the Web Update Wizard.
When you try to update Version 2.00 you will see a message which tells you no further updates are currently available.
You can cleanly uninstall the "Hello World" application via the uninstall option on the Start Menu or in Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs.
Click the 'Try It' button now:
Notes:
Please choose 'Run from current location' from the dialog that appears when you click the link.
Note that the Web Update Wizard must be installed and running on your PC for the test application to work.
Click here to see the script which will be executed in the demo.
The test installer can be run and uninstalled as often as you like and leaves no trace upon uninstallation. See what your users will see!
Note that if you are having trouble getting the Web Update Wizard to work with your software you can check your installation using this test application. The test application uses
wuw4.dll and either the Service implementation (if you are running on Windows 2000 or later). If the Hello World application updates successfully, your installation is
correct, the Web Update Wizard is running, and the problem relates to how your
application calls the Web Update Wizard or your update script.
