Every time I run the update checker from within my application, it attempts to close my application, and it appears to close, however there is a popup box that appears with the following:
"The following applications should be closed before continuing the install:"
It shows my application , and then it also shows the updater application.
I select the option that says to:
"Automatically close applications and attempt to restart them after setup is complete"
From there is continues fine. I would like to find out how to avoid getting this error window.

Re: Autoclose not working properly
Hello,
This may happen if your application window do not correctly react to the "WM_CLOSE" message sent by our Updater.
As a workaround, you can configure a "Terminate process" custom action in your setup project. Just open your setup project and go to "Custom Actions" page. Here add a "Terminate process" custom action with sequence scheduled before "Install Execution Stage -> Preparing" action group.
Let us know if this helped.
All the best,
Daniel
