restart keepassxc after upgrading on windows

[soredake]

Summary

It would be nice if keepassxc can start keepassxc after upgrading from old version to new, right now installer will close keepassxc before upgrade but will not start it again after installation is done.

Examples

1. Do winget install -h -e --id KeePassXCTeam.KeePassXC -v 2.7.3
2. Start keepassxc.
3. Do winget upgrade -h KeePassXCTeam.KeePassXC
4. KeePassXC is not restart after upgrade is done.

Context

KeePassXC don't have built-in updater, so i use winget to update keepassxc, it's annoying that i need to start it again manually after every update, same with chocolatey package.

We do start after install, the installer may be preventing that with flags provided after install. We don't control that, the maintainer of the winget package would.

@droidmonkey there are no additional options passed to installer aside from default two (/quiet /norestart)

I've installed 2.7.3 from winget, them downloaded 2.7.5 installer and run it with .\KeePassXC-2.7.5-Win64.msi /quiet, keepassxc is NOT started in silent install mode, please reopen.

This is by design, hence silent/quiet. This is not something we control it is a fundamental feature of MSI

Is this really not possible?

We aren't going to implement a bypass of this, sorry.
