I would like to propose that you replace the current MS ClickOnce installer it with a tiny software that I came to love that is used in many great projects like Visual Studio Code and Atom: Squirrel (https://github.com/Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows) it is open source and definately better than ClickOnce and just as easy to deploy.

    Hi @Stanzilla,

    We took at look at it before and we'll certainly revisit it later but we didn't see any big reasons to use it over ClickOnce for the moment.

    We've picked ClickOnce because it's the simplest to get started for now as we just want to get 1Password 6 beta builds out to you guys and iterate the product quickly.

    We may not even stick with ClickOnce later in the development as a lot of things will be overhauled.

    Glad to see that you are using HockeyApp now instead of S***Once!

    Booo. :lol:

    Well, I thought ClickOnce was kind of cool, but yeah we've definitely outgrown it pretty quickly. I'm liking the HockeyApp/MSI combo too. :)
