powerlauncher preventing powershell 7 uninstall/update #10231

@enricogior, this is a different style issue, typically it is a warning that our installer needs something closed, why would powershell need to close Launcher? |
I think is the same Windows installer bug, just with reverse applications. Can reproduce it? I can't (I regularly update PowerShell using the MSI installer). |

@enricogior, i can actually verify that screen. I don't 'get' why, but i see what @LuanVSO see. I quit PT, and it doesn't come up. I restart PT and do the search like he has and PT has the a hook on that. |
Can you please elaborate on what the Windows Installer precisely is? Is this a known, documented issue? |
These days also PowerToys Awake is included in the message: FWIW I've collected some information about the situation at the time of the message, as well as an installer log. See https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjBPRo9wXw9s9IpRI0QQXQvPCKSwWA |
This is interesting. From the conversation it doesn't appear that the PowerShell update fails, just that PowerToys is getting in the way and needs to be closed first. From that standpoint, I wouldn't mark this as a high priority item. We should continue to investigate, but this probably doesn't need to be tracked on release project board yet. |
I have the same problem at work! If Otherwise, it uses Shouldn't it just always use the second path? |
Hi, |
Haven't experienced the issue when I upgraded PowerShell from 7.3.3 to 7.3.4, probably on 2023-04-14. What was the PowerToys version back then? Do we know what has been changed on either or both sides that could explain that the problem's gone? |
@LuanVSO does this still happen? /needinfo |
Not sure about powershell removing the dll, but that name looks like "Diagnostics Symbol Reader"? |
