Is there any option or switch to remove old installation directories.
This has been asked loads. Squirrel keeps the current version and the previous version. For example just a few duplicates are linked below. There is no way to change this, and Squirrel will clean up old versions the next time you update. If you need to clean it up earlier, you can do it yourself.
And option DON'T USE numbers in folder. Is very difficult to create firewall rules every application update.
With this library, there is no way to do this. It will always download your app into a folder with the version number, and this does cause many problems beyond just firewall rules. If you really need this to change, you can check out version v3.* of my fork - which keeps the current version of your app in a static location (in a folder called current
) instead of in a folder with the version number.

This is the best option. I wish it will be released someday. Thank you.

Well it is released in my fork. As this library is not being actively developed, it will probably never happen here.

As I said, the problem for me is in my "status" - I am just a user, not developer. I cannot port GitHub Desktop, Discord, WhatsApp Desktop and some other apps to your fork. So I hope Squirrel will do that feature.
