Glance 2026.08.06.2 adds verified in-app updates with automatic installation and restart.

Highlights

  • Check for updates, download the installer, and complete an upgrade without leaving Glance settings.
  • Follow download progress through a Fluent progress card and cancel before installation begins.
  • Verify downloaded installers against the SHA-256 digest published by GitHub before execution.
  • Preserve previously selected optional components during upgrades and select newly introduced components by default.
  • Prioritize direct installation for installed builds and the Release page for portable builds while keeping both actions available.
  • Restart Glance automatically under the original user account after a successful update.

Release contents

  • Glance-Component-<Name>-2026.08.06.2-x64.zip: Standalone optional component. Use only the package from the same Glance release, extract it into the application's components directory, and restart Glance.
