Hi, I just bought the source code for the Update Utility and when I publish and try to run the app, not even with any changes in the original code, I get this error messages. The config file works fine, because when I run the free version of the Utility it does what it's suposed to. But when I publish the app form the source code it doesn't work, I've tried with embedConfig set to both true and false to see if it makes a diference put it does not. Can anyone help me out and see what's happening?

you did not specify the filename to start once the file is downloaded

Thanks for trying to help me, if you mean the FILE_TO_RUN in the config.txt, yes I did specify it. And wheitn I run the free version code it works well, if I didn't it wouldn't work, so I don't think this error comes from the config.txt. I guess the second error happens because it doesn't download well the app due the "access to the path is denied" error.

the updateutility only works if you run it as administrator, windows otherwise blocks the updateutility, this is what causes the error.
