Quickstart#

Introduction#

The CLI application, Melissa Updater, offers simplicity and uses the Releases service to check for updates, download files, and verify the integrity of those files.

After testing, scheduling a batch file or PowerShell script to utilize the CLI tool could automate the process entirely.
