Abstract

See full text

A reboot reduction infrastructure may be used by applications to make installing modifications as unobtrusive as possible. Applications may register with the reboot reduction infrastructure and use provided APIs to detect which applications and services have files in use, shutdown down those applications with files in use and then restart those applications in a form similar to which they were in when the applications were shut down.
