Default wu-temp value ?

Hi,

What is the default wu-temp (eq temporary directory) used by wyUpdate during the update process ?

Some antivirus detect some potentialy corrupt file and delete then during the update process, i have remove my app folder from the antivirus setting but the problem persist.

Hey Gilles,

The temporary directory is "%temp%\w[RANDOM]".

Thanks a lot for the fast reply.

It's possible to change this default value ?

No, you can't change the value (not without editing the source code). What's the error you get from your anti-virus?

That my main program file (<application>.exe) is potentialy dangerous and for security reason it will be removed. I have add the destination folder of my app in the exclustion of the antivirus but i can't add the %temp% folder ... (it's not safe)

Regards, Gilles

Code-sign your app and those false-positives will go away.

Could you give me some tips for signing app ?

Regards Gilles

There are about a million tutorials on code signing on the web. Here's 1.
