OK, I have a Windows Forms application published using ClickOnce tohttp://MyDevComputer1/DevPublishFolder/, so the deployement link is http://MyDevComputer1/DevPublishFolder/publish.htm.
The application is already deployed to close to 20 machines in the company intranet. I now have a requirement to change the publish location to a different server in the same network, but I'm just not sure how this change will affect the users who already have the application installed on their client machines.
How do I make sure the application detects that the publish location has been changed to a different server during the next application start up on client machines?
Or must I go and uninstall the application on all the client machines, and then re-install from the new publish location?
- Go to the Publish tab and click the Updates button.
- Add the new URL to Update Location dropdown list and click ok
- Publish
Once all of the clients have received the new version, they will look to the new URL (and your new server) for all future updates.
