My installer (previleged in LaunchCondition) would install an application which requires elevated previlege (Run as Administrator).
On Vista and Win7 with UAC turned on and my application is still running (as Admin), if the uninstallation is performed via "Programs and Features" or via command prompt with normal user previlege (msiexec /x xxx.msi), there will be a pop-up dialog showing: "The setup must update files or services that cannot be updated while the system is running. If you choose to continue, a reboot wil be required to complete the setup." And within the log, I can find: MSI (s) (5C:50) [16:45:58:108]: RESTART MANAGER: Did detect that a critical application holds file[s] in use, so a reboot will be necessary. MSI (s) (5C:50) [16:45:58:108]: Note: 1: 1610 However, if the uninstallation is performed via command prompt with "Run as Administrator", the installer won't pop-up "Reboot Request" dialog, but would sucessfully show the "MsiRMFilesInUse" dialog to let the users make decision. And, within log, the above 2 lines log doesn't exist. My question would be how to make "MsiRMFilesInUse" dialog to show up instead of "Reboot Request". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
