Hi guys,
first of all thank you very much for this precious library. It's very useful and save me a lot of time! Thank you.
I'm facing a problem with the auto update process when the application is lunched as "standard user".

The user is a test user with standard privileges, the application is "installed" in the ~/Applications directory, and it works fine.
The only problem that I've is this strange update behavior.
Once the application is started it never shows the "new update available" window.
I don't understand why.
Is there a way to check whether the app is failing the check for update on startup process?
I tried doing exactly the same thing with a "administrator" user and it shows the "new update available" window.

I hope I'm not wasting you time.
Have a nice day!
