Auto update nightmare

[Maximus5]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 930

Required information!
OS version: Win8      x64
ConEmu version: 2013.02.05 and all previous
Far version (if you are using Far Manager): Far Manager, version 3.0 (build 3011) x64

*Bug description*
Mess on auto update
ConEmu setup with automatically update on dev. releases.

1. ComEmu (with FAR) ask to upload new release - Yes
2. ComEmu (with FAR) ask to update - Yes
3. New console has been opened
4. ConEmu (with new console) ask to upload new release - No (Grr..)
5. Installator reports about open FAR and console (Grrr...)
6. If select close it can't close new console (Grrrr....)
7. If select do not close and reboot after the installator do something
8. Installator ask to reboot - No, I d'like to do it later.
9. Installator crash with some error (Grrrr!!!).
10. If I run the FAR (with conEmu) after that quest WITHOUT reboot it will updated
and works correctly on the first look.

I am lost. 

*Steps to reproduction*
1. See above

Grrrr! :-P
Thought, you've enabled "ConEmu Autorun" for cmd.exe (Comspec page).
Disable it, there is more 'progressive' feature - default terminal.
So, there will be no step 4 and no problem.

Yes, it is possible. I unregistered "automatic attach of cmd & Tcc ..." and will see
with a new update. 

But may be the right solution will be ignore/temporary disable this setting during
update. 

Another question select "No" in reboot dialog - why to suggest such option if it brakes
installation?

I'll see what can be done.

This is MSI, not me.

Btw, you may install/update to older version and check update today.

Thanks.

Really? Why all others applications react on such choice (reboot later) with out any
errors?

>Btw, you may install/update to older version and check update today.
Ok. Step 4 disappears, but I receive - "ConEmuC64.exe - Application Error", "The application
was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application" dialog
during installation. After OK. I run the ConEmu - look Ok and is updated :)

Also got the update issue while autorun was enabled. Maybe it's time to get rid of it
if it's that bad feature?

I see no reason for removing "Autorun" feature, hm.

1. It may be "installed" by any user himself through registry, even if I remove it
from ConEmu settings.
2. If it will be removed and was already enabled in prev versions of ConEmu - user
will lose easy way to disable it.

Timeout. I'll think, what I can do.

I think, this will be fixed in 130223. Of course, you may notice changes only when updating
from that new build, not from old one.

Thank you! At least the error message with (0xc0000142) does not appear just after update.

Recent update went well but not without bugs. I had kitty with SSH session launched
in ConEmu tab. When it asked for update I've said Yes and then it tried to close Kitty
but since it asks for closing it it failed, then tried again and again creating lots
of instances of the dialogue. Then Kitty crashed and update went well.
