Updated the debugging page to tell people to run the commands against their app exe, and not `Update.exe`. Update.exe did not seem to work, while running directly against the app did.

# Debugging Installs
|
|
|
|
The following tips will help you to debug the installation of an Squirrel app.
|
|
|
|
## Simulating an Install and First Run
|
|
|
|
If the install of your application doesn't seem to be working, you can explore the behavior by executing the install steps from the command line:
|
|
|
|
~~~ps
|
|
C:\user\AppData\Local\MyApp> MyApp.exe --squirrel-install 1.0.0
|
|
C:\user\AppData\Local\MyApp> MyApp.exe --squirrel-firstrun
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
The first cmd should create some shortcuts then immediately exit, then the 2nd one should start your app ([source](https://github.com/Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows/issues/525))
