    Hello!..

    Sudenly i saw that my program updated by just copying the release/.exe file into the program directory, looks like .exe file contains everything for a modified version including images.... it is just fine to copy only .exe file or do you recommend to windeployqt each time you modify your program ?

    thanks.

      It's OK to only update the .exe if you compile all resources into it (you must be using QRC to store the images). But it may break when you add a new Qt module to your app - so definitely test it before releasing such app.
