Human being with feelings
Auto-update and auto-install
Optional ability to check download and install any updates at start, and auto-restart.

Hi !

Current situation

REAPER is able to check if an update is avaible. Link is provided, it leads to REAPER main page.

Feature request
It would be even nicer if REAPER was able to download this updates, and then update REAPER, and restart it again.
It would be nice if it could be optional.
And it would be nice if we can have the changelog before the download (currently, it is displayed after the new install).

Quote:
Auto-update is not a gadget. It is a life saver.
Some reasons why it would be awesome :
  • We all have a LOT of softwares installed. Softwares that require manual downloads often finished to be not updated. And every update that you really want to make drives you into the whole manual process, which is very painful when we have a to repeat it for every software we care about (same thing with VST).
  • People have sometimes several computers (main, protable, secondary...). It is a bit annoying to have to redo the process X times.
  • Some people use REAPER with a LOT of computers (schools, formation center...). These people will thank you a lot of these !
Thank you for listening !
