It does seem odd that if this file is in use: <File Id="file2576" Name="INFOWO_1.EXE" LongName="infoworks.exe" src="$(var.WSRedist)\infoworks.exe" Vital="yes" />
It warns you to close it, but if this file is in use it does not: <File Id="fwfile80" Name="wsq95.exe" src="$(var.FWRedist)\wsq95.exe" Vital="yes" /> The later runs in the system tray and is only listed in the process list, not the application list in the task manager, this could be related. *Shrugs shoulders Simon -----Original Message----- From: Schrieken, Rene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29 August 2007 09:39 To: Simon Topley; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Kill Process " Does anyone know why this is not the case for XP/2000/2003 ?"

I haven't come up with a clean way to solve this yet. I notice with most other things that are left running the installer tells you to close them before it can proceed with the uninstallation, indeed under vista it does this very thing for the process in question. Does anyone know why this is not the case for XP/2000/2003 ? The file is set as Vital and the KeyPath for that component, I'm not sure what else I can do. Kind Regards Simon.
