Thank you.

What are the reasons you won't update 7-Zip and Visual C++ redistributable?

from npackd-cpp.

There was a time when 7-zip wouldn't update with NPackD. Regarding the Visual C++ redistributable, I usually assume that another program, or possibly Visual Studio IDE installed that specific version of the package for a reason, and I am reluctant to update the redistributable for that reason.

Aside from that, occasionally, programs like CCleaner change maintainers and get adware and analytics added to them, which would be a reason why I would not like to update these types of programs, or a critical feature in a program for my workflow was depreciated in a newer version of the software because not enough people benefited from the feature (ex. Firefox updates causing addons to not work anymore, etc.). There are plenty of reasons why this type of feature is desirable.
