completely separate the RC Deployment Tool from the App
The RC Deployment Tool should be a completely separate entity and not tied to any one version of the RC Desktop App. There is a new 'tool' released with each new RC App release.
This tool is supposed to help the administrators by letting the RC App update itself automatically. However, the FAQ states that the Deployment Tool should also be updated once a quarter which again requires admin attention and defeats much of the purpose of the tool. Especially since that's about how often we were updating the RC app anyway!
The tool should be its own entity and not related to the app itself. Something independent that would not need quarterly updates.

It is now September 2024 and I see that the auto-updating Deployment Tool has been removed from the Downloads page and replaced by the earlier non-updating MSI installer.
Why was the tool removed? Was this idea taken into consideration?
