| | Are update and install reboots still required? One of the things that has annoyed me since day 1 has been the need to reboot the computer after updates or new software installation Does Vista perpetuate this? If it does, perhaps the designers need to go back to school. |

| | Re: Are update and install reboots still required? Vista makes it so that you have to reboot less often, but occasionally you do. Vista looks at what files need to be replaced during an update and if they are in use, it unloads it (if it can) replaces it, then reloads it to avoid the restart. -- Dustin Harper dharper@vistarip.com http://www.vistarip.com -- "nofixed" <nofixed@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:44997AEB-42DC-4281-8D6E-8A3B05D7155E@microsoft.com... > One of the things that has annoyed me since day 1 has been the need to > reboot > the computer after updates or new software installation > > Does Vista perpetuate this? > > If it does, perhaps the designers need to go back to school. > |
