Web Updater Sub Folders/Files

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack
1

So everything I've seen assumes that the main application and sub folders are installed under
the application folder.. i.e.,

\Program Files{App}\application.exe
\Program Files{App}\application.exe
\Config
\etc.

However my setup has a specific folder for the app and every other
part of the program has it's own folder as well

\Program Files{App}\Exe\application.exe
\Help
\Images
\Reports
\etc..

Any suggestions on how to adequately update files in this scenario?

I've seen a suggestion about putting these into a CAB file, but I'm a little confused as to how/
where to reference this and to get it extracted.

Thanks.

Per downloaded file, you could specify a target folder for install.
You can do this with a prefix, like {MYFOLDER} and then have your TWebUpdate.OnConvertPrefix calculate the absolute path on the user machine for this {MYFOLDER} prefix and in your .INF file have something like
[file1]
URL=..
targetdir={MYFOLDER}\Help

[file2]
URL=..
targetdir={MYFOLDER}\Images

This is explained in https://download.tmssoftware.com/download/manuals/TMS%20TWebUpdate%20Developers%20Guide.pdf on page 8.
