I’ve enough.

Last year the automatic updater was rebooting windows without any warning after the uac prompt. The problem continued for months before being fixed

This year I got an update a week. Very annoying to get the same “why u no reboot? I need updates” question every single time I turn on my PC.

Today when updating it kills explorer.exe without any confirmation and doesn’t bring it back to life.

I don’t think that their paid enterprise customers are doing the beta alpha testers like this. Is it really necessary to push nightlies to end users? It can’t be tested casually for a couple of days then pushed?

I disabled the updates check and will update the nextcloud desktop client manually every 5 years if I can remember. Added an exception to Winget so it doesn’t update it. I lost my patience.

    Update:

    Today just to show the bug to someone else, I installed the update via Winget on a windows 10 PC and… nothing. It installed silently, didn’t bother with asking a reboot nor crashed explorer.exe. So I went to another windows 11 PC and tried again with the silent updater and… silently updated without badly crashing explorer.

    Either nextcloud fixed the installer for real or Microsoft fixed the reason explorer was crashing in the windows update that was pushed yesterday

    Finally the days where all the explorer windows will disappear when updating NC desktop are gone?
