Description

Blocked on #1538

The goal for this task is to write the code needed to execute the install of brave-core from within browser-laptop. This would likely be a JavaScript file that we package with the build which could make the shell execute calls needed to perform the install via node.js

Requirements

  • Installer should be packaged into the browser-laptop release
  • Script should run once browser is launched
  • Needs to execute appropriate installer (32-bit / 64-bit)
  • Install should be silent; no UI shown (should NOT escalate permissions, show UAC)
  • If brave-core is already installed, nothing needs to happen
  • Shortcuts to Brave and handlers for default browser should open brave-core
  • User should still be able to manually launch the binary at %userprofile%\AppData\Local\brave\app-0.26.0\Brave.exe (or similar)
