0.5.26 - Translation Updates and New Download/Install Options

on GitHub

This update includes translation updates and new download/installation options

Apart from bug fixes and translation updates, I expect the pace of updates to Windows Update Viewer to slow down as I turn my attention to projects that have been neglected for too long. When I return to Windows Update Viewer in 2024, I will be upgrading it to .NET 8, which was released in November and is the next LTS version of .NET.

Changes:

• Updated: German language updates #66 #67.
• Updated: Numerous other language file updates.
• Updated: If a newer version of Windows Update Viewer is found when checking for an updated release from the About page, clicking OK in the resulting message box will now close the application after navigating to the GitHub Releases page.
• Updated: NLog was updated to the latest version.
• New: Additional download and installation options. See below.

New download and installation options ✨

With this release I'm adding Self Contained versions both the portable and installer versions. In this context, Self Contained means that the required .NET files are included. A self contained installation does not require that the .NET runtime is installed. Of course, by including the required .NET files, the installation is much larger. Download the installer or zip archive that best suits your needs.

In addition:

• Publishing a Self Contained build requires that either x86 or x64 be targeted. Consequently, there are versions for each x86 and x64.
• The filename of the Self Contained builds will indicate the architecture, either x86 or x64.
• The name of the zip archives has been changed from NonInstall has been changed to Portable.
• The Checksums table below has been updated to include a description for each file.

Thanks:

My continued thanks go out to everyone that helps with language translations. Considering what you get paid, you are **AWESOME!**⚡
