Hi, I have a problem with Restart Manager on Windows Vista. During uninstallation of our application (usually after establishing the connection - our software is manager for Data Cards) the Windows Installer shows that it needs to close and restart several system services (e.g. Application Experience, Application Information, Application Management, Background Intelligent Transfer Service, Certificate Propagation, Extensible Authentication Protocol, Group Policy Client, IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules,....). After pressing OK the installation ends with restart required. My problem is that I do not know how to avoid displaying of such ugly dialog (the user is unable to stop the system services). All services are hosted in one process (svchost.exe) and therefore all services are displayed to the user.
Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks Stefan Here is the InstallaValidate action from the Log file : Action start 11:21:43: InstallValidate.
