In the MyApps list in the app's context menu, what's the different between "Auto Updating" vs "Silent Installation?"
Autoupdating means that Home Updater will automatically start updating an outdated app when opening Home Updater. No user action is required.
Silent install means that the installation is done without displaying the user interface for the setup program or requiring any user action. You will get the default installation for the app and the installation process will not be displayed on the screen, including any options for the user to customize the installation.
There are global settings for these two options in the Settings tab and individual settings for each app in the My Apps tab.
Thanks so much for your explanation. It was very helpful. Relatedly, if the scheduled updates functionality is enabled, does it make auto update & silent installation moot?
For example, the schedule is set 9 pm daily and the PC is unattended.
