clickonce installer is not taking updates directly when application starts

Question

I made a clickonce installer for my application. I wanted that it should take updates automatically as soon as the application starts. Ergo, I checked the "Application should check for updates" checkbox in updates tab. I created a folder in my local machine by the name of updates in C:. Also i changed the update location to the URL where i upload my updated application on ftp. I included only those dll files in the Application files tab that i had changed and updated. All these updated files went into the C:\updates folder. Now i uploaded this folder on the FTP in the updates folder and the URL was http://www.abcserver.com/projects/abc/test%5Ffolder/updates/. Now when i run my application it is not asking me for the updates but it runs the application directly. Please tell what could be the issue.

Its pretty obvious that its not picking up the changes you have made , you should probably check that the [YourAppName].Application has changed on the upload as this is what that framework uses to initially check if a change has been made , If you dont want to do this , you might want to have a look at WyBuild as its a much nicer app updating framework
