Check if update is in process

Hi

I have been using the following approach to start auto update installer. 

if (addinModule.IsMSINetworkDeployed() && addinModule.IsMSIUpdatable())
{
	string updatePath = addinModule.CheckForMSIUpdates();
	
	if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(updatePath))
	{
		addinModule.LaunchMSIUpdates(updatePath);
	}
}


But it fails sometimes if the updates are in progress or if the user has done multiple clicks. How do I check if the updates are in progress already and avoid calling addinModule.LaunchMSIUpdates(updatePath) again.

Thanks
Kiru

Hello Kiru,

You can disable the button once you call LaunchMSIUpdates() and enable it at the next add-in start. Note that if the update is running, you'll find the downloader in the list of processes.
