Hello,
On Vista,
when removing a product,
when a service, which is running, will be removed...
does someone know, why the Restart Manager throws a messagebox, that there are files in use ...
The service will be stopped and deleted at CA StopServices.
Up to InstallValidate, where the Restart Manager is started, I have no chance to stop the service, especially when running as standard user under UAC.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Thanks in advance!
Johannes

It's "known behaviour". Previous versions of Windows Installer didn't detect running services that are locking files. Vista's Restart Manager can now detect more running processes, including services. You could contact msiwish@microsoft.com to request a smarter behaviour. As a workaround you could use a custom action to stop the service.
