Force reboot on repair

Hi,

I have an installer which runs an qpplication after install, this application then prompts the user to reboot as some of our components require a restart. The problem we have is that the application is not required to run after a repair but the restart is required. Is there a way to the user (or at least give them the option) to restart after a repair?

Thanks
Cosmin

Re: Force reboot on repair

Hi,

In order to prompt for a reboot after a repair you can go to the Install Parameters page and set the "Reboot Prompts" combo to Force Reboot after install. Note that with this option set the installer will always prompt for a reboot (after the first installation, after a repair, after the installation is modified and after the installation is removed).
