I wish to see automatic updates being added since it is a pain to go into every application and click check for updates. I am suggesting this built into winPenPack Menu so only one button to press. Update all Softwares.

Hi misterpengin227,

actually we are working on this direction with the new launcher.
Please, be patient for a while!
The new x-launcher is growing up better and better. Actually we are testing a semi-automatic update and it works quite fine.

so, stay tuned and see U soon

as said by Taf, a new release of the WinPenPack menu will be next released with a such functionality.
But please note that it will be an updates checker, not an automatic updater, because is very difficult, for us, to update automatically software other than X-Software. So we preferred to deal with a tool that helps user to choose what and when update... We believe that this could satisfy the majority of our users...
