We use WiX 3.0.
We have a problem: the end user is running the old version of the application,
but she tries to install the new version at the same time. As we use major
upgrade, the old version will be uninstalled first. So in this case, if the old
version is running, we can't install the new
.
Why this happens? How to resolve it?
Thanks.

2753 is nothing directly related to FilesInUse - look up the Windows SDK
Windows Installer errors for this kind of thing.
It's typically caused by running a custom action referring to a program
run.

Thanks Phil! I really appreciate your reply and your time.
If MainApp running and FilesInUse does not shut it down, then it cannot be
replaced on the system, so it can't be run.

Your custom action effectively says Run version 2.0 of mainapp.exe after it's
been installed on the system. Version 1.0 is running when you do the upgrade.
It cannot replace MainApp.exe unless
