TARGETDIR is just the root for Directory elements, you can add sub

First I have to say I know nothing about WHS but presumably you are
calling some interface to register the addin, is there an unregister
addin interface you could call on uninstall?
In use files should be automatically replaced when you restart. You can
also use the util:CloseApplication to stop
Hopefully someone else with WHS experience can help.

uninstall that file while it's in use.

Just a thought, you might was to consider a simple bootstrapper that
wraps up the msi. You could then keep the msi filename the same but
change the name of the bootstrapper exe, that way you don't break the
msi rule.

I am not sure
But if you don't do official builds you can't run them on any machine
but ones that trust the public key - not something that I think is a
good idea. So, for example, if you needed a fix and it hasn't made it in
to the build you would need to build an official build.
I assume I must be alone in
Take a look at mallow (there is v3 version here:
