I decided that I will update the nextcloud (windows) desktop client once or twice a decade (feddit.it)

I've enough.

Last year the automatic updater was rebooting windows without any warning after the uac prompt. The problem continued for months before being fixed

This year I got an update a week. Very annoying to get the same "why u no reboot? I need updates" question every single time I turn on my PC.

Today when updating it kills explorer.exe without any confirmation and doesn't bring it back to life.

I don't think that their paid enterprise customers are doing the ~~beta~~ alpha testers like this. Is it really necessary to push nightlies to end users? It can't be tested casually for a couple of days then pushed?

I disabled the updates check and will update the nextcloud desktop client manually every 5 years if I can remember. Added an exception to Winget so it doesn't update it. I lost my patience.

Ooo, is it made by the people I work for? Because this story sounds incredibly familiar to me.

😂 I'm sure I'm not your boss cause you're using a Canadian instance and I'm nowhere near Canada. Maybe it's just that NC underdelivers equally poorly for almost everyone...
