Delete .wyu files

is it possible to delete the .wuy files after succes install?

I'm not sure I understand. When your users update successfully the downloaded *.wyu and *.wys files are deleted automatically.

Not when the download folder is : file://C:\test\%file% !

Oh, I see. You're testing updates on your own computer instead of a server. Let me tell you the lifecycle of the *.wyu and *.wys files:

  1. You click build updates. This creates the latest *.wys and *.wyu files.
  2. Upload these files to your server.
  3. When the user runs wyUpdate (or uses the AutomaticUpdater in your app) the *.wys file is downloaded to a temporary folder.
  4. If no updates are needed the file is deleted and wyUpdate reports that you're all up-to-date. If updates are needed, the appropriate *.wyu file is downloaded.
  5. The update is installed.
  6. wyUpdate deletes the *.wys and *.wyu files from the temporary folder.

In other words, the *.wys and *.wyu files that wyUpdate downloads are deleted once they're not needed any more.

The *.wys and *.wyu files that are built from wyBuild remain on your computer until your delete them. It doesn't make any assumptions.

Does this make sense?
