### What if the latest is already installed?
### What if the latest version of the app is already installed?
Short answer: Installomator will re-download and re-install the latest over the existing installation.
Longer answer:
Installomator will try to find a currently installed app and log the version. When Installomator finds an existing app (any version) and the `updateTool` variable is set, then Installomator will _not_ download and install, but run the `updateTool` instead.

However, there is no simple generic method to actually determine the latest version of an application or installer.
We deploy Installomator usually for user initiated installations from Self Service, so re-installs don't really 'hurt' and may be a useful troubleshooting step.
When you want to have automated installations, you should use smart groups based on the app version to limit excessive re-installations.
