# Step 3. Distributing
|
|
|
|
After packaging MyApp for distribution, the various files in the `Releases` directory are used to distribute MyApp to users.
|
|
|
|
* **Setup Application** - the `Setup.exe` application is provided to new users to install the current version of MyApp (see [Installing](4-installing.md) for details).
|
|
* **Update Files** - the `RELEASES` file, along with versioned full and delta packages, are used by the update process (see [Updating](5-updating.md) for details).

## Local File Distribution
|
|
|
|
For simplicity, this Getting Started guide uses a local file system location for updates. The location is defined in the update location provided to the `UpdateManager` (see code in [Integrating: Basic Updating](1-integrating.md)).
|
|
|
|
This generally is not practical for updates, unless all your users have access to similar network path where the files could be easily placed.
