Validation
How did you test these changes?

  • Did you build the app and test your changes?
  • Did you check for accessibility? You can use Accessibility Insights for this.
  • Did you remove any strings from the en-us resource file?
    • Did you search the solution to see if the string is still being used?
  • Did you implement any design changes to an existing feature?
    • Was this change approved?
  • Are there any other steps that were used to validate these changes?
    You can try this feature by editing or deleting FilesLaucher.exe.sha256 in the LocalAppData folder.
    A log is output when updated.

Details

  • The update process runs when the app is launched with the default file manager setting turned on.
  • This feature checks the file stored the SHA256 hash value of FilesLauncher.exe, rather than FilesLauncher.exe itself.
  • FilesLaucher.exe.sha256 is generated during the build process of FilesLauncher.
