Quit fails [still in Windows Task Manager for XP Home]
When I quit my installer in XP Home....
the installer.exe is still present in Windows Task Manager even though it no longer appears to be running...

in Win2k, the same installer works fine....

I have tried abort and quit....
is there some trick to this ?

Do you have a banner running when you call quit (or any other plugins for that matter with /nounload)?

E.g. if you have a Banner loaded, and call quit, your installer will quit or the task-bar item will stay, so you must call Banner::destroy first.

many thanks :)
I rechecked all of my banner::show and banner:destroy calls and changed all my 'quit' commands to 'abort' and now it works like a charm

NSIS is a wonderful thing
