I'm trying to create an add-in for Windows Home Server. I've settled for the 
major update, removing any previous version of the add-in. But I'm facing two 
issues:

- WHS is creating an additional registry key in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows 
Home Server\RegisteredAdditions. This key isn't deleted when the add-in is 
uninstalled. Thus I end up with multiple entries for every update/version i've 
created. The normal "Add/Remove Apps" applet is fine. Any idea how this can be 
fixed? All I've come up with is removing the corresponding key on uninstalls. 
But this seems like a hack.

- While updating an add-in from the WHS console, the old version obviously is 
still running and being used by the console. Thus uninstalling it fails. How 
can I replace a file which is still being used? WHS Console requires a restart 
anyway. Is there some "replace file asap"?

Regards,
