Beta AutoUpdate

Hey @Ben,

Have you ever considered adding the beta release channel to the built in updater as a user opt-in selection?

  • This is available as a hidden option: click the SecuritySpy menu, and from the Debug submenu, select Change Software Version. Here you get a few choices including the latest release build and the latest beta.

  • Very cool. Does that change what's used by "Check for Updates" or is that the route I'd need to go each time I wanted to apply a beta update?

  • It doesn't change what the normal auto-updater will offer (i.e. if you select Check for Updates), but it is an easier way to apply new beta versions if you know they are available.
