@Jeremiah: Yes I read pretty much everything on RestartManager that there is to find, but I don't even have any custom restart manager code. I am using my own MBA, but the RestartManager stuff is handled by WiX, I only respond to the file in use notification. However, when the RestartManager fails to open the session, I don't get the ExecuteFilesInUse event at all, I only end up with Info 1603 messages in the log.
@Phill: Thanks for the info, but it's all in the same user context, and the installer works fine everywhere else including other Win 7 machines, it just fails on this one particular machine and I can't figure out why.
