However, I'm not sure there's a good way for Flash to provide that kind of seamless update experience in the same way. It's not an application in itself, so it can't check for updates with the consistency that a browser can, and when it does run it's always to immediately execute whatever flash content was requested, so there's less leeway for it to start updating itself in the background and potentially impact performance. Currently it pops up a window on startup every once in a while (I skipped it the first time and it didn't bug me again for maybe 2 weeks) and its maybe 2 clicks and 20 seconds of downloading. It's not Chrome-level seamless, but it's pretty damn good and I was surprised by how good it was compared to Acrobat and every other updater I've used in the past.
