Windows package with zip:false will not update

[neels]

Hello All

If I package a windows app with node-webkit-builder as zip:false (all files and package.json in exe directory not as nw.pak) the app starts downloading package and unzips runs in temp but never replaces the old app.

I had to do this to get a faster windows app startup.

It works if I have the normal nw.pak structure on Windows.

Can someone please guide me in the right direction?

Works for me now.

If anyone runs into the same issue as me just update....

app/updater.js:
line 394: del(to, {force: true}, cb); -----> del(to + '/**/*', {force: true}, cb);

and when you call run:
upd.run(execPath, []); //do not use "null" in second parameter as that crashes the app

Hope this helps someone else.

@neels I guess we should add an option for this. I don't know what that option would be named though.

Would you like to submit a pull-request to add this?

@adam-lynch I have created a pull request. #113

Thanks for this awesome updater!
