[Update process] Updating ShellExt conflicts w Win Explorer
Posted: Fri Oct 17, 2008 12:01 am
Hello everyone,
(My XnView version: 1.95 Win32
My Windows version: XP SP3; 32 bits
My english level: low ^^)
I use the shell extension since a few XnView releases now and each time I update xnView, each time i've got the same issue (sorry, it's in french):
found in this topic did help me.... mostly to understand that Windows Explorer must be closed during the update process 
..
So, should it be possible to add a small message during the install process to remind us to close the Windows Explorer when the ShellExt option is checked, or just inside the error window, before processing/resuming? (Or anything else but more complex such as a detection for any Explorer window that is opened, or another way to manage ShellExt update?)
Regards,
Johan
