Hello,

I'm having a problem starting a shared .exe after I uninstall one of my
applications from ARP. Both logs (msi and BA) don't indicate any problems.
They show a unisntall of the msi and a proper shutdown of the BA. However,
this is what I'm trying to do: so if I detect I have another one of our apps
installed. I go and launch the shared .exe from the BA on ApplyComplete by
using ProcessStart and passing it a start info object and setting the
workingdirectory property. I don't need to wait for this process or
anything, I've also tried to run this off a Task.

At this time it launches our app and everything seems to uninstall fine, but
actually not. It seems something is still referencing/holding on to the
uninstall process. ARP does not update to remove the entry that I just
uninstalled unless I manually hit refresh OR I kill the app that I launched
on uninstall.

How can I just launch the app without ARP holding onto the uninstall?

Thanks in advance!
