We develop an application with a DLL that is loaded into many processes, largely outside of our control. It is confusing for our users when they are prompted to close these seemingly unrelated applications when we update the DLL. Updating the DLL requires a reboot independently of any files being in use anyway, so hiding the "Files In Use" dialog is a nice solution for us.
There are other examples of people wanting to disable the "Files In Use" dialog:
Add
bal:DisplayFilesInUseDialogCondition
, similar tobal::DisplayInternalUICondition
, to be added toMsiPackage
elements to control the display of "Files In Use" inWixStandardBoostrapperApplication
.For example:
