feat(installer): Stop all SyncTrayzor processes during v1 upgrades - #242
Merged
Conversation
Old SyncTrayzor versions (< 1.1.29) did not stop themselves upon uninstall. This causes a number of problems for v2 (uninstaller cannot clean all files from v1 dir, ghost processes, locked CEF cache). To improve this, manually stop all SyncTrayzor processes during a v1 upgrade. This isn't bulletproof: If the user manually uninstalled v1 beforehand, we may still have the processes open, but uninstaller information is already gone. Thus, this isn't a perfect solution but it can help some users on a direct upgrade path.
