PowerLauncher.exe causing issues with some program installers #11690
Comments
I suspect this has something to do with the indexing process, so maybe it should release the files sooner so it doesn't cause errors like this. |
This is the file watcher being too aggressive. thought we had backed being as aggressive for this exact reason. |

Indexing doesn't take a lot of time. So maybe we have leaked resources. |

@mykhailopylyp I still got the same error when I disabled that. I also tried "Windows Search" with the same results. |

Yep, that is the exact error I am getting. |

What's the impact of that warning message? As it's not causing installations to fail, I'm not sure if this's something we need to prioritize. I may still be missing context though. |
It doesn't set the Maybe, we should move it to the post stabilization milestone. |
is this still an issue in v0.79? /needinfo |

Microsoft PowerToys version
0.37.2
Running as admin
Area(s) with issue?
PowerToys Run
Steps to reproduce
✔️ Expected Behavior
The installer should proceed normally.
❌ Actual Behavior
The installer may trigger various warnings during installation. In my case, PowerToys was using "Open-Shell Update.lnk" which caused a warning about properties not being able to be set.
Additionally, I have a ProcMon log file that I was using for troubleshooting with the Open-Shell installer earlier. Here it is: Logfile.PML
I was able to verify that the error didn't occur if PowerLauncher.exe wasn't running.
Other Software
Open-Shell Menu (May also affect other program installers)
