Replace with different project with ClickOnce update?

We have an old old WinForm project that was deployed with ClickOnce.

I have just created a new WPF project and planning to deploy with ClickOnce and remove the old WinForm application from all the computers.

Is there a way that I can let all machine when they run the old WinForm application => Check for Update => Install the new WPF application?

There is way to code in an implementation for this type of behavior but there is no automatic, easy way to do this.

This has been a bit of an annoyance because any time you need to update a prerequisite or re-publish your application with a new security certificate, the user needs to re-install your application.

To get around this, however, I created a very simple API that you can use to help automate this process.
