# Windows Update Feed
QSfera Desktop uses the built-in Windows updater from `src/gui/updater`.
The updater reads `APPLICATION_UPDATE_URL`, appends query parameters such as
`version`, `platform=win32`, and `msi=true`, and expects an XML document with
root element `QSfera`.
Production feed URL:
```text
https://qsfera.kusoft.xyz/desktop/updates/stable.xml
```
The no-update feed is valid when no signed Windows MSI is available yet:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<QSfera>
<version></version>
<versionstring></versionstring>
<web>https://qsfera.kusoft.xyz/</web>
<downloadurl></downloadurl>
</QSfera>
```
To advertise a signed MSI update, publish the MSI over HTTPS and replace the
feed with a concrete version:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<QSfera>
<version>1.3.7</version>
<versionstring>1.3.7</versionstring>
<web>https://qsfera.kusoft.xyz/</web>
<downloadurl>https://qsfera.kusoft.xyz/desktop/downloads/QSfera_Desktop-1.3.7-x64.msi</downloadurl>
</QSfera>
```
Validate the live feed before a Windows production release:
```powershell
./scripts/validate-desktop-update-feed.ps1 -Url "https://qsfera.kusoft.xyz/desktop/updates/stable.xml"
./scripts/validate-production-release.ps1 -VerifyUpdateFeed
```
For a stable signed tag release, `validate-production-release.ps1 -RequireSigning`
also verifies this live feed.
