I have managed to reproduce the problem I am having with
CloseApplication in a simple install. The key seems to be that
CloseApplication won't close minimised applications (and also a tray
application that I use in the application I am trying to solve the
problem for). I have written some code to simulate what the CA should be
doing i.e. sending WM_CLOSE to the top level window and it works ok for
minimised applications. So it sounds like there may be a bug in the
CloseApplication custom action code.

Could anyone else confirm whether this is a bug.

I have also found that on Windows Vista the "File in Use" dialog gives
you an option to "Close applications" but on XP it doesn't. I assume
this "File in Use" dialog is part of Windows Installer not WiX.
