That's a very fair assumption.  'setup.exe' knows when you need to reboot

Agreed.

Rebooting will fix the problem.

Not necessarily.  These files were all missed during a reboot.

I usually reboot my PC once per week.  I tend to Hibernate or leave it
running at the end of the day.  I also run setup.exe multiple times
per week to check for updates.  There may be some cases where the
files that need updating are missed.


If that's true, it would be indicative of a bug.  If you're willing to
help track it down, please provide the details of how you reproduce this
situation.
