Disable clickonce application rollback

Question

Hello,

is there any way for disabling the rollback (getting the previous version) in an clickonce installed application?

Answer 1

Open your project's properties, switch to the Publish tab and click the Updates button. The dialog that pops up has a section for a "minimum required version for this application", which lets you enforce that a user upgrade to a specific version.

Once you've set that, users shouldn't be able to roll back to a previous version. They'll also be forced to upgrade if they're running a version older than the minimum.

Note that I haven't tried this, but it's my understanding of the "minimum version" feature.
