Universal Tool Updater
Universal Tool Updater is the result of having to deal with keeping the tools I use in my lab up to date.
The idea was to be able to have a universal tool for all the cases that could occur. You can download it and see the documentation here https://github.com/xchwarze/universal-tool-updater You can also see an implementation of the same in this other project that I have |

thanks for you nice tool do you support updater for the archives that do not have version embedded in it's name, so the vendor just overwrites the previous one, eg: https://download.sysinternals.com/files/ProcessMonitor.zip |

For tools that are not hosted on Github there are two strategies:
1. Regex: You can make use of regex to locate version numbers and download links on websites 2. HTTP Headers: If it is impossible to apply the first method, there is a secondary method that consists of using the "last-modified" header and if the server does not make use of it, "content-length" is used as fallback. As an example you can see the config file of the updater of my toolkit https://github.com/indetectables-net...ater/tools.ini In it we can find the example you asked before Quote:
