Steve CBTW the changes I have applied to wyUpdate.exe were just the strings rename from "wyUpdate" to "update"
custom wyUpdate.exe GUID
Steve CI was using standard wyUpdate.exe with GUID X now I created custom update.exe with the same GUID X.
I followed your tutorial on custom updater.
I can update my product v1.0 and the wyUpdate.exe v2.18.4(your official version) to product v1.1 and update.exe v2.18.5 (i just added some mods to 2.18.4). But I cannot update from then on my update.exe. it fails with message that downloaded file cannot be found.
Is it so that the GUID of update.exe must be different from the GUID I have used in the past for wyUpdate.exe?

What GUID are you talking about? When you create a new wyBuild project a new GUID is created. So don't copy & paste wyBuild projects. Create them from scratch.

More information is needed. If you're making changes to wyUpdate then you can just attach a debugger to wyUpdate and see why it's not updating. Maybe you broke something. I don't know. Unfortunately we don't have the resources to offer free support to fix other people's code.
If you follow this article ("How to make a custom version of wyUpdate") and you use our pre-built wyUpdate.exe, then you should have no problem.
