- Updated the `restartFarmControlAfterUpdate` function to handle the new parent PID, ensuring a more reliable shutdown of the Farm Control application during updates.
- Modified the `launchWindowsInstaller` function to pass the current process ID as an argument, enhancing the installer’s ability to manage application restarts effectively.
- Added a new PowerShell script to generate NSIS file lists, enabling the installer to track file copy progress.
- Updated the NSIS scripts to include macros for logging total bytes and individual file copy progress during installation.
- Enhanced the `winappupdate.js` to parse and display copy progress information, improving user feedback during updates.
- Increased sleep durations in the `restartFarmControlAfterUpdate` function to ensure smoother application restarts during updates.
- Refactored the `startWindowsInstallerProgressWatch` function to reduce polling interval for better responsiveness.
- Cleaned up code formatting for improved readability and consistency across the `appupdate.js` and `winappupdate.js` files.
- Updated the NSIS installer to support side-by-side updates, allowing the running application to remain active while a new version is staged in a separate directory.
- Modified the installation directory handling to ensure the correct paths are used for shortcuts and registry entries.
- Enhanced the update process to include a retry mechanism for folder swaps, improving reliability during updates.
- Adjusted comments and documentation for clarity on the update process and its implications.
- Implemented a new function to restart Farm Control after a successful installation, triggered by the `/RESTARTFC` option.
- Enhanced the installer script to wait for the application to close before relaunching, improving user experience during updates.
- Updated the app update process to conditionally schedule a restart based on the platform, ensuring compatibility with macOS.
- Added support for silent installation mode.
- Implemented detailed progress logging during installation phases, including status updates and percentage completion.
- Refactored the handling of previous installations to ensure smoother updates and in-app upgrade processes.
- Updated error handling for installation failures, providing clearer feedback to users.
- Changed the installer extension from `.exe` to `.msi` for better compatibility with Windows Installer.
- Refactored validation functions to ensure proper handling of MSI packages.
- Improved logging and progress tracking during installation, providing clearer feedback on the installation status.
- Updated the installer script to manage previous installations more effectively, allowing for smoother upgrades.
- Updated multiple files to consistently use `os.homedir()` for constructing the local application data path, improving compatibility and clarity across the codebase.
- This change enhances the reliability of directory retrieval for Windows environments.
- Introduced a new restart stage in the app update progress component, allowing for better handling of application restarts.
- Updated the status management to include restart states, enhancing user feedback during the update process.
- Modified installation completion messages to indicate that a restart will occur after installation.
- Adjusted prop types to accommodate the new restart stage in the UpdateStage component.
- Removed the restart stage from the app update progress component, simplifying the update stages to only include download and install.
- Updated the app update logic to schedule a restart after installation instead of handling it directly in the installer functions.
- Enhanced the messaging for installation completion by removing references to automatic restarts in the progress messages.
