Add a possibility to update all installed Redgate tools
I have installed the SQL Toolbelt and I would like to update all its components in one shot. Currently, It is possible only by downloading the setup of Toolbelt from Redgate site and "re-installing" the products.
When I go to Help->Check Updates for particular component, let's say SQL Compare, only this component can be updated. And mostly I have to close All my SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) session and Visual Studio (VS) Sessions for the
update, which is time-consuming, but I guess makes sense.
But after this, I start again all my SSMS and VS sessions and When I start next Redgate component, let's say SQL Data Compare, it might also ask for an update. And I have to repeat the procedure of shutting down my SSMS. and VS-sessions. Having some 10
Redgate components installed (SQL Toolbelt), I have to repeat this process several times per week, which is not that productive.
Therefore, I would like to update all components, let's say weekly, so having to stop my SMS and VS-sessions only weekly, which would be totally ok.
Whether this multi-component update tool is launched either from each components Help -> Check Update or as a separate update tool from Windows menu, I think both would work.
PS. This feature is initiated based on my Support-ticket: https://productsupport.red-gate.com/hc/en-us/requests/147081
