Unhandled exceptionSolved

What can cause the following exception (see below)? There is only one app accessing the file so I'm actually surprised that I get the message '...because it is being used by another process.'

Since the control is hosted on the wpf form I do not know where to catch this exception. Any suggestions?Or do I have to change the source code of AutomaticUpdaterWF4 and add a catch in there (maybe ownerForm_Loaded)? I noticed that there isn't any error handling in the code at all. So all exceptions will cause an unhandled exception in my app, which will terminate my app.

Here are the details.

I'm going to look into this. I'll get back to you.

An news?

This will be fixed in the AutomaticUpdater 2.6.15

Looking forward to it 😉

wyBuild 2.6.16 is now out -- this bug is fixed.
