Good Afternoon, Hopefully someone can help, i am going nuts! i have a small but important app in vb express that used to automatically check for a new pulished version or update, but now it is not. I have checked my settings, and all seems to be okay. All my paths are ok, and it is set to check for an update before the app opens. Has anyone had this problem before? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ps - i recently switched back to 2005 when vb express 2008 wasn't working well, if that helps -- Message posted via http://www.dotnetmonster.com |

Are you saying that your app is deployed with "ClickOnce"? If so, what certificate is used when you did the publish? If you used a testing certificate, generated with .NET SDK tool (you can do it within VS, but I am not sure for VS Express), it has 1 year expiration. So, if the certificate expires, your "ClickOnce" depolyment will stop working, although the app that has already deployed will still work, it will not be able to check update anymore. That is what my guess of your situation.

Thanks for our quick response, but clickonce seems to be okay too. my certificate doesn't expire for some time. although when i look at the properties, it has a red x on it. Does that mean anything?
