Auto update starts download, but doesn't finish for Windows 10 - updater requires signed app

[EngelJ-712]

If you are running V 5.4.1 (and the version before), you are informed, when there is a new version with the button [UPDATE TO 5.4.x]

If you click on it, there is a progression bar to show the download.

At least on my PC ist starts very quickly, but it takes extremely long to finish:

First I thought, that it got stuck.

Going to the website and downloading via browser works much quicker.

Maybe a message would help after the download finished, that now installation starts.

i am afraid that electron updater with github hosted update is sometimes stucked. I personally saw it in previous version, then i was fine next day.
I have no easy solution for it, Maybe adding text to let user download it manually as you did.

Roman,   If I download the file manually and then install it manually, the installation part also takes quite a while.   I assume (now) that the first part, when the bar moves quite quick is the download part. And the second part, which takes so long, is the installation.   Adding text is fine. But maybe it is sufficient to display an additional text in the current screen (no additional window) after the download has finished. S.th. like "Download completed. Please wait until installation is complete. This may take a while.".   Rgds Joerg     Gesendet: Sonntag, 31.

Seems that signed app is required for auto update in Windows environement
