How to update executable file in same VS solution
In a VS .Net 2003 solution I have a project called «App1».
From this project «App1» I can download an updated version of the exe called «App1_UPDATED.exe», put it in the same folder as «App1» and close the application.
Question:
Next time I start this VS .Net 2003 solution, I would like to check if there is a file called «App1_UPDATED.exe», and if so, delete «App1.exe», rename «App1_UPDATED.exe» to «App1.exe» and launch the newly updated «App1.exe».
What would be the best way ?

Why do you want to do this? each time you build the app1 project it will overwrite the app1.exe file.
