Update 16 not silent?

Update 1 + 4 + 16

But XY still asks me twice. Why? I just want to update no matter what.

[admin]

The "silent" only refers to the installer itself. Yep, docs could be clearer.

[Leito]

I wondered that as well. Updating the docs would be good.

Could we have a flag to update 100% silently by removing those two message boxes?

[hari3]

I too want total silent update without messages

I'll check that later.

[admin]

Should work in next beta version. (You can only test it when upgrading from that version.)

[Leito]

Great, will test that.

Same flag (16)?

[admin]

Yep.

v19.50.0117 - 2019-01-09 16:16
    ! SC update: The "silent" flag (16) was not silent enough. Fixed.
      Note: You can only test it when upgrading *from* this new version.

I tried it to update from v19.50.0117 to v19.50.0118 by running ::update 1+16+128. What happens is:

• Installer file is downloaded.
• Windows admin prompt is opened and asks if I want to run XYplorer_19.50.0118_Install.exe. I click "Yes".
• XYplorer is closed, then restarted, but still v19.50.0117.

So, is this a bug or didn't I fully understand the flags to use?

[admin]

Yes, I see that here too. Scratching my head. Needs some

v19.50.0119 - 2019-01-10 16:30
    ! SC update: The recent change did not work. Added some debug info.
      Note: You can only test it when upgrading *from* this new version.      

When running ::update 1+16+128 to upgrade from v19.50.0118 to v19.50.0119, I got the messagebox "This appear to be a silent upgrade... something" (sorry, forgot the exact text). Looks like your debug info?
Then it correctly upgraded to v19.50.0119, so it seems fixed.

Are you sure when you write "Note: You can only test it when upgrading *from* this new version."?

It's what you wrote as well for v19.50.0117 changelog, but we already had the issue by upgrading from v19.50.0116 (as reported by @klownboy here).

[admin]

Uh.

1) So the presence of debug info fixes it? There is some Heisenbergian weirdness at work...

2) Oh, yeah, you download the new installer so indeed you can test right away!

[admin]

I removed that info and added a 1 second sleep. And re-uploaded. Seems to work.

[Leito]

Works for me as well.

I'm not sure why there's a difference in the behavior I received when upgrading to v19.50.0119 from v19.50.0118 and Leito's result (see my bug thread - it was silent but I had to restart XY). Did I update too quickly from the your initial v19.50.0119 upload?
