The other day I updated an app, RJ Text Ed I think, and after the update had finished, the app hadn't updated.
My Fault as it was running at the time, but it made me think about how paf handles this.

On updating check that the app isn't running prior to the specific app update then proceed if it isn't. If it is running, then warn the user to close that app. Just a check in Task Manager or something would probably suffice.
I realise it's an entirely different thing working in a different way, but thought it may be a necessity for SyMenu. Is this something you feel should/could be implemented?

Thanks

SyMenu already checks if an app is running and just in case it refuses to update. In your installation report window you should get this information.

Ah, ok. That's strange as I didn't get it for this app?

Probably you misunderstood the message because it is something like this: "The action can't be completed because of the unavailability of enough disk space, a lack of permission, or a running program."
If instead you didn't receive a message like this it was probably a bug.
