Hello,

Could you please advise me on the following.

We have a product that will be installed on a network.
Each client machine will have access to the network share
and will be given the correct trust to run the
application.
The current problem we have is that when we start the
application it takes approx 5 mins to start, the reason
behind this is that it's loading the assemblies across the
network to the clients PC each time (basically it's not
cached). We understand that by using Updater Application
Block we could download each assembly to the client's
machine and cache it in a folder so next time we start the
application from the network share we would set the
codebase to check the cache first and if a new version
exist in the network share we would download it first. My
question is can we archive this by using the Updater if so
do you have an example which does a similar thing which we
can look at.

Thanks,
