Is there any way to differentiate programmatically which event is occuring i.e shutdown or restart after catching WM_QUERYENDSESSION??

Hi David,

Indeed it is helpful :

For eg:

User A pressed 'Restart' on the 'Shutdown Windows ' dialog. My application recieves WM_QUERYENDSESSION message and I return false (means I am temorarily delaying the shutdown) , but WM_QUERYENDSESSION never lets me differentiate between a 'Shutdown' & 'Restart'. Now, in this time after my application has completed its work it wants to continue with the operation that user chose then this registry value is one thing that lets me know whether the user tried 'Shutdown' or 'Restart', thus accordingly I can perform his desired operation Smile | :)

Have you verified that the registry is updated with the 'restart' flag even though no restart was performed?

Software is not getting fully installed inside a folder with name "," (comma). Some of the files are missing

Hi,
Our software (our product) is not getting fully installed inside a folder with name "," (comma). I tried installing on a folder with name ";" (semi colon) then software got fully installed.

What could be the reason.

Thanks.

Well, the comma character is used as argument separator in many contexts (for instance in command line when running an application).
I would say it is not wise naming a folder that way. If you really need to deal with it then good luck.

The very first line of the documentation for this class says:

CCmdTarget is the base class for the Microsoft Foundation Class Library message-map architecture. Documentation could actually be useful, you know?
