Where does VLC store the update file(s)?

Postby Papa Echo » 08 Jun 2020 17:26

I just saw a message that a new version from VLC is available and I clicked on download. Then another window popped up that asked me to install it, but I canceled it because I was busy. Now I want to install the update, but I can't find it. Where is it? What's the name of the file?

Meanwhile I found it myself. The file is in this folder:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp
The filename: vlc-3.0.10-win64.exe
