When there is a new update a message should appear, that a new update is available.
Accepting the update should start an integrated updater, which will then download the real updater from the website and immediately start the downloaded updater.
From this point on the following steps equal those from manually updating.
_This is just one possible solution for an integrated updater. Downloading the update in background and notify the users to start it would be another._
Clicking the Update now button opens the webbrowser which is then downloading the file.
User needs to manually start the downloaded file to update.
Update available dialog will pop up again reminding the user to download the update. Some users may recognize they already downloaded the file some time ago and may simply start the update. Other users might start the procedure from the beginning with downloading the update and may again forget to start the update after downloading the file.In my opinion the current update process is more complicated than it need's to be and should be simplified to improve UX.
They are working on it 馃榾 have a look at https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/pull/1847.
Thank you @splitt3r
I searched if there is already an issue for this, but I didn't find any.
@Ich5003 I think I found an issue regarding this: #1798. So I guess this can be closed as a duplicate.
