As part of our MSI installer we include the VC100_MFC and VC100_CRT merge modules, and we expect them to be written to a SxS location in %windir%\winsxs\.
However, we've troubleshooting an issue at the moment where in the event viewer on Windows it shows that the installer needs access to the locked file at C:\windows\system32\msvcr100.dll. On some systems there are some processes that don't adhere to Windows Restart Manager messages, and therefore a restart is invoked by Windows to complete the installation (if those two processes aren't running, it's fine). It was my understanding that these merge modules should be writing to the SxS location, so why is this happening? Thanks in advance. - Chris. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
