The auto-update feature has two windows. The first one pops-up when an update is detected and, if the user clicks “Download” in this window, the second one is displayed when the download is complete and the update is ready to be installed. Here are the steps to trigger the auto-update window.
Start regedit to open the Windows registry.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Patchou\Messenger Plus!\.
Edit the “SoftwareBuild” value and set it to 1 (write down the current value to set it back after the test is complete).
Simply wait and hope for Messenger Plus! to check for an update.
does this still work in Plus Live (adding "Live" in the registry path)?
The registry value is there, so I assume it does work. However, the old .doc said that you could check for updates through the About window, which no longer is true.
I did some quick searching, but I didn't find any ways to force it.

Triggering the auto-update should be as easy as that, but you don't have to wait after changing the registry setting, you can speed up this phase by sending /checkupdates to any contact (in a chat).
I am afraid this won't work as I tested it myself and Patchou stated it before:

Also the Interface Tester program of Messenger Plus! Live given by Patchou in
this thread may be useful for these windows like [Window.PlusNotLoaded],[Window.UpdateAvaliable] and [Window.UpdateDownload]. You can consider giving a link to this program in the guidelines.
