Update window for desktop app should identify itself
A standalone notification window just appeared out of nowhere in the middle of my screen - without saying what is sending it.
Since such behavior is super suspicious and could be coming from any malicious software, for precaution I had to use System Informer to check where is this window coming from.
Not sure if this is an update 'feature' of electronjs, however, it has to be fixed. I have huge stack of apps running on my system. It's nice to understand who is whistling at the time. Could be bad ETs. :)
Don't scare your customers. :)
Obviously I cannot paste the screenshot here on UserVoice.com, so I will write texts displayed in this strange update notification window:
Application Update
A new version has been downloaded. Restart the application to apply the updates.
-> Restart
-> Later

My desktop app updated automatically and caused a popup window asking to "Restart the application" without any sort of identification of WHAT application. In this day of increased instances of malware and ransomware, some sort of identification would be appreciated.
