Process Conflict

Process Conflict, determines whether running processes will be terminated during the installation of the application on the end user computer.

Default Process Confirm Type

There are 3 options:

Disabled:

While an application is being installed on the end user's computer, if this application is running, it is not terminated. In this case, the application's setup file decides what to do. Since Easy2Patch does not send any information, failure to terminate the application may cause the installation to fail. The update is performed on the first restart of the target computer or when the application is closed.

Kill:

While an application is being installed on the end user's computer, if this application is running, it will terminated. If the user tries to run the application being installed, Easy2Patch notifies the end user with a warning screen stating that this application cannot be opened.

Confirm:

While an application is being installed on the end user's computer, if the programs of the installed application are running, Easy2Patch will display a warning screen and inform you that the application will be automatically terminated and the application will be updated after the specified time.

For the applications specified in the Process Names field, a key with the same name is opened under the registry key below and the application is prevented from running with a debug record.
