I see. I notice the temporary file (which was originally the running
exe) gets deleted on next reboot, but the problem is, its parent
directory (in my case, the INSTALLDIR) is not.
Is this a known MSI issue?

If MSI can't replace a file that's in use, it schedules the replacement
to happen at next boot. See the MSI SDK doc for the ReplacedInUseFiles
Property, for example. A verbose log will shows when it's being set.
