How to stop the already running application when I install a new version of same app
Hi All,

I have created a script that installs my alpplication on windows XP. But if I run the application and then If I try to install another version of the same application, its throws an error.

I want is

1. It to ask the user whether he wants to terminate the application in order to proceed with the installation.

or

2. It should run an test.exe application before installating my app. This test.exe should take care of terminating the already running application.

note: test.exe will be bundled along with my Application when i create an inbstllable setup.


Has any one done somthing similar ? Can anyone help me on this ?

Thanks and Regards,
Chaitanya
