This is just the way the AutomaticUpdater is designed. It must be on a Window or Form. Now you can put in inside a container on the Windows, but the AutomaticUpdater must be added to the Window.
I'm evaluating wyUpdate and I want to add the AutomaticUpdater control to a PRISM module, which is in fact a WPF user control. However, when forcing an update it throws an exception:
{"Could not find the AutomaticUpdater's owner Window. Make sure you're adding the AutomaticUpdater to a Window and not a View, User control, etc."}
Why is this? I'm using PRISM, so I have to use this in a user control. Is there a workaround?
