We have some vb.net application running in the server. We are using windows server 2012 R2 server .Server and clients are connected through LAN and clients will be accessing application from server and all clients access from same path .When new version of application is built the changes will be directly replaced in server with clients working on vb.net instance .With old application instance open ,when we try to open new application instance it opens old application instead of new .How can the new vb.net application instance opened without closing the old vb.net application? We are using visual studio 2008 and clients can be with operating system windows XP,7,8.

Answer 1

Have you tried using the embedded ClickOnce Deployment Publish and Deploy feature? It's in Visual Studio 2008.

You can update your program, deploy it on the server, and force every application (installed on your network client PCs) to check for updated at the next launch. It's very simple to do, it's just a yes/no check during the deployment phase.
