DLL Overwriting
Hello,

I am wondering how NSIS deals with overwriting system dlls that are in use. I have seen installers that make you restart the computer, then before Windows loads again, copies the file over. How do we do something like this using NSIS?

Thanks,
Chris


Use Copy /REBOOTOK to do this. Search the forum and you will find some macros that does this for you. You can find one at Sunjammer's NSIS Archive.
