you say download and install but how?

  • if you want to install like msi setup i'm suggest you to try squirrel which is like clickonce but it works.

  • But you can also check: Installshield or Advanced Installer which it can let you create an update windows service. With windows service privileges, you can do your job without user interaction.

  • Also the other way which i prefered 2 months ago is your own application. You can create an updater windows service application. I've developed an updater software which checks an url for the version, if the version higher then download and update the application. Also check if application is running if app is not running then run it. i'm starting processes with an 3rd party tool which you can find it here you will need it if you want to develop your own application which is windows service. Because of windows service isolated "session 0"

I think best way will be your own development.
