With electron on widows I want to launch an auto-update when needed. I want to use squirell and not electron-updater . Do you know how to do that?

Yes, you probably don't need to use electron-updater. You can build your app with Squirrel by using electron-packager: https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-packager

Then, you could use build-in module autoUpdater(electron's doc here) to make auto updater.

  • Can you use this to have a local source for the updates? If you want to have the new releases posted to a common network drive to avoid having an update server? – Otto Gutierrez Apr 16 '20 at 10:46
