I’ve put the finishing touches on the first version of my EnvatoUpdate notification app. The app has been tested on XP and Vista, but may run on other versions of Windows as well.
Features:
- New sales notifications (visual/audio)
- Current balance / total earnings
- Marketplace links
- Automatic updates (will check for and install any available updates each time you start it)
Here’s the link:

Just hit install. Any missing prerequisites will be installed, and then the app will be installed. To run it, find it in your Programs > EnvatoUpdate folder in your start menu.
And of course, give me feedback! Comments, bugs, suggestions, feature requests, etc.

Finally a new one that works, and works for Windows Vista! I was the first to test the beta version and I gotta say, this is great! It’s really useful and has a lot of cool features! I can’t wait to see some new ideas in the future with this!
Looking good so far. Just gotta get some sales now…

So, I went to the page, hit Install, and it went to a page with a bunch of code. No programs installed or anything… is that right? I also tried DL’ing the file locally and hitting install – no dice. I’m sure this is me being a total bonehead, but what am I doing wrong?
This sounds like an awesome app… can’t wait to see it working on my machine 
Mac? MAAAAC ?
Oh sorry, I forgot most designers here use Mac and not PC 
Looks awesome man. Can’t wait for a mac version

It doesn’t work for me, it cannot be installed for some reason 
An error occurred downloading the following resource: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=118076

See the setup log file located at ‘C:\Users\NIMBUS~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VSD73BB.tmp\install.log’ for more information.
It works for me but if I hover over the little icon it says: ‘Total Earnings:$8830 with 16 sales’
which isn’t true…

..... it would be great, if that would be true, right?
And that would be a costly item….. the item would cost around $1379
