autoUpdater.autoInstallOnAppQuit not working?
See original GitHub issue- Version: 20.28.4
electron-updater 3.1.2
- Target: Mac, Windows, Linux
I’ve set autoUpdater.autoInstallOnAppQuit to false, and confirmed that after an update is downloaded (at the event handler) and the user opts not to .quitAndInstall(), the app will still install the update when it’s quit.
Digging through the code this was not expected as BaseUpdater/addQuitHandler should bail if the flag is false. https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/f966f1a22bd7577e493595ac261e4b38ec0ce233/packages/electron-updater/src/BaseUpdater.ts#L65

I’m seeing this with electron-updater 4.2.0, but only on Windows. On macOS it works as expected.
@develar This should be reopened IMO.
The issue orrcurs to them: https://github.com/Automattic/simplenote-electron/issues/1094 And it also happens to us with electron-updater v4.0.10 and
autoUpdater.autoInstallOnAppQuit = false. When the user chooses to install the update and clicks “Later” on the update dialog, the new version of the app is installed without further notification after restarting the app twice.
