Summary
?In-Use File Behavior? setting available in the Project>File Settings section of the InstallAnywhere Project Advanced DesigneSynopsis
Discussion
On a Windows platform, the ?Replace in-use files after restart? option causes the installer to update any files that are locked at install time (files that are in-use when the installation is being performed) after the system restart. Usually during an upgrade installation where the files that are being installed are already present on the target machine, if the files cannot be overwritten because they are locked, enabling this option will configure those files to be replaced after the Windows restart.
The ?Replace in-use files after restart? stores the locked/in-use file information/entry in the 'PendingFileRenameOperations' in the following Windows Registry Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
