NSIS AutoUpdater QuitAndInstall prompting user to close app before installing

[dustintownsend]

• Builder Version: 15.2.0
• Updater Version: 1.8.2
• Target: NSIS / Win

After an update is downloaded I call quitAndInstall. It works, but the installer opens before it is able to fully close the application.
The message is APPNAME is running. Click OK to close it and continue with install.
If you click okay it runs the installer and relaunched with no issues.

Is there anyway to prevent this prompt and just default to close the application and continue with the install?

you have manage to manualy update the app??? not auto

like if update is avalable and if user want to instal now or later

@George35mk the check for update is done before a "sync" action happens. I want to make sure the user is running the latest version before the sync happens. This happens in the background as this app runs in the users app tray.
