Sharing an simple executable file for multiple people?

Question

Beginner level question

Scenario: Have simple string cocantation tool, that I might expand later on. I'm interesting in keeping updates and "upgrades to it" as time progresses. They have access to the shared drive.

1. Share one executable and they just have shortcuts to it? Multiple users using it? (might have issues with personalization that I could setup later on.)
2. Have them copy over the setup file to their individual computer and install individually?
3. If applicable, please let me know HOW I could publish updates simply with the "publish tool." Is it fairly straightforward and updates them telling them updates are available?

I'm a beginner so a little help or links to beginner level explantions on this would help.
