Hello Alan

Windows Vista and later changed the logout and shutdown procedure. The
mechanism the old wpkgclient is using doesn't work with Vista+.
It is pretty much the same reason why wpkgclient can't delay logon any
more.. It is still possible to delay shutdown (Acronis Trueimage for
example delays shutdown for a few hours if a backup/validation is running)
- but it's a different mechanism and wpkgclient would need to be updated.

not possible on Vista+ - WPKG runs in a different session and (AFAIK) it
is not possible to show dialogs in the active user session like in XP-.
