Auto updater options for server?
It's not a website, it's a project.

WinForms Application Updater
You could also maybe check out AutoUpdater.NET as another possibility.
-
updating a WinForms application in runtime.
Aa others mentioned, it just more common to have an auto-updater mechanism built-in in your app. Check out AutoUpdater.NET which periodically check the server for new versions, download it in background and allow you to present a "update ready" button to the user that quickly restart the app to the new version when they are ready to apply it. A bit like the Chrome or Discord update ready buttons.

Libation 6.4 -- Custom file naming
Good catch. Hmm, looks like Squirrel might be a no go. Oh well. My examples were not heavily researched. Just something to point in a starter direction. At a glance this looks promising too: https://github.com/ravibpatel/AutoUpdater.NET

Can I use Steamworks even during early development?
Libraries like https://github.com/ravibpatel/AutoUpdater.NET, and plenty of others. This may not fit your needs, but maybe it does.

update WPF application automatically from Github Releases
But it AutoUpdater.NET(https://github.com/ravibpatel/AutoUpdater.NET) does quite the same. It only looks at your own server instead of github. You should be able to get an idea of how it works and how to implement it using github instead.

I created a small library to compare published .NET Core directories!
I have a few desktop apps that uses AutoUpdater.NET to update the app on startup, as well as one app that's linked to a mapped drive. Since both apps are self-contained, it's always been a pain to update them - you either have to copy the entire 150 MB publish directory to your update location, or you have to pick and choose which binaries were updated, which you'd then push into a ZIP folder.
