The Edit Auto-Close Application Dialog

Edit Auto-Close Application Dialog Specify the attributes of the application that you want to close.

"AutoCloseApplication" key from the Updates Configuration File

Main Executable Path

The path of the application to be closed. This string can contain the [APPDIR] value - the path where the application is installed. It can also contain any environment variables, surrounded in with the "%" character.

Using this path the Auto Updater tries to detect the main window of the application. In order for the application to be successfully closed, this window must not be a dialog and it must have a system menu and a title. The application will be closed with a WM_CLOSE message sent to this window.

If this method fails, additionally you can specify the title for the application's main window. In this case the updater searches for this window and sends the WM_CLOSE message to it.

Windows Title Prefix

The name of the top level window of the application that must be closed. It must have a frame (WS_CAPTION style set).

NoteWhen searching for the window, the updater compares the string you specified with a substring from the window title, starting with the first character and having the same length as the specified string.
