<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I've developed application &amp;&nbsp;setup project for that...<br />
I've used custom action (DLL) also...<br />
Now I want to provide &quot;Upgrade&quot; Or &quot;Update option&quot; for this application...<br />
This option will check for updates available &amp;&nbsp;installs if any...<br />
<br />
How to do this?

Deployment Using C# 2005

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.
