In this video, we will learn how to set the minimum required version revision in Visual Studio for a .NET C# WinForms Desktop Application that is published and distributed via ClickOnce. By default, C# .NET projects published using ClickOnce do not require clients to update the application to the latest version. This can allow users to skip the updated version of the desktop application, potentially leading to data corruption.

Using Visual Studio Publish options, you can force clients to update a ClickOnce application to the latest version without prompting the user. By setting the version revision number in the Publish Settings of your WinForms application in Visual Studio, you have full control over the desktop application's version. The WinForm Desktop Applications on all the clients' computers will be automatically upgraded to the latest version.
