I've been thinking of rolling my own code for enabling my Delphi application to update seamlessly as I'll be going for "release often, release early" mentality furthermore. There are various Delphi solutions (both freeware and paid) out there and I'd like to ask if you've been using any of them or simply went on with your own solutions in this area. Any comments on the auto-update topic are welcome.

Open Windows Update in the Control Panel. Click Change settings, and set the drop-down menu to Install updates automatically. If you don't have Microsoft Update installed, only Windows updates will download automatically.
What is automatic updating? With automatic updating, you don't have to search for updates online or worry that critical fixes or device drivers for Windows might be missing from your PC. Windows Update automatically installs important updates as they become available.
Updating your apps to the latest version gives you access to the latest features and improves app security and stability. Update your apps. Important: If Google determines that an app update fixes a critical security vulnerability, we may make certain app updates.
What ever scheme you use, it may be handy to know that you can actually rename a running .exe file. So rename file, copy in new file works nice. And the next time someone launch the program they will launch a the new version. This is ofcourse very handy in enviroment where many users run the same .exe file, like in citrix/terminal server/network share cases.
