Exact setup behavior description, when prerequisite needs a reboot
Using InstallShield 2018, I added Visual C++ 2015-2022 Runtime prerequisite to InstallShield setup project. When VC++ Runtime is installed first time on some computer, it may request reboot. The behavior of the setup is defined in InstallShield Prerequisite editor:
I selected the last option: Reboot the machine and resume on reboot. Resulting behavior: VC++ Runtime is installed, and computer goes to reboot, even without user prompt. After reboot, setup resumes.
I want to have the following behavior: If prerequisite needs a reboot, setup continues. In the end, when the product is installed, setup should ask user to reboot, user may accept or reject this.
What option in the list should I select, to get desired behavior? Their description is not clear enough.
Third option should get the desired behavior.
Note it, fail to resume if the machine is rebooted, and reboot after the installation.
For artificial reboot, you might play with 'PendingFileRenameOperations' value in the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
