If you want to just check the generated .exe files then they're in that `dist.win32` folder. +Now check that the `EDMarketConnector.exe` in the `dist.win32` folder does run without errors. + +Finally, uninstall your current version of ED Market Connector and re-install using the newly generated .msi file.

Put the `appcast_win_.xml` file where it will be served under the URL you specified in the `update_feed` you set in `config.py`.
