Update your app from a remote server.

2.12.x

2.12.0

Sep 20, 2026

  • 1308bfa3 Breaking change: the allowDowngrades option was removed from the check command and is now read from the plugin configuration instead.

    Previously any code running in the webview could pass allowDowngrades: true to plugin:updater|check and relax the version check from "the update must be newer" to "the update must be different", overriding the comparator the application had configured on the Rust side. The flag is now an application-level setting:

    {
      "plugins": {
        "updater": {
          "allowDowngrades": true
        }
      }
    }

    It defaults to false, and is ignored when the application provides its own Builder::default_version_comparator, which continues to take precedence.

Jun 16, 2025

  • 87afa23c (#2726) Add allowDowngrades parameter to check command

    Added a new optional allowDowngrades parameter to the JavaScript check command that allows the updater to consider versions that are lower than the current version as valid updates. When enabled, the version comparator will accept any version that is different from the current version, effectively allowing downgrades.
