Bug report

After uninstalling Workrave (the RSI prevention program - I have not tried other programs, I only mention this just so you can hopefully recreate the problem) the new version finds nothing:

Whyreboot © 2003-2006 Exodus Development, Inc. http://exodusdev.com

Version 1.0.1.537

NOTE: These results may not reflect all pending operations, and you should use your own good sense in deciding whether to reboot your computer after an install.

Detected Windows NT, 2000, XP, or variant

Results:

No items were found.

NOTE that this does not mean that you don't need to reboot your computer, rather, WhyReboot was unable to detect any pending file operations.

But my old version finds this:

WhyReboot Version 1.0.0.500
Exodus Development, Inc. http://www.exodus-dev.com

NOTE: These results may not reflect all pending operations,
and you should use your own good sense in deciding whether
to reboot your computer after an install.

Windows NT, 2000, XP, or variant

Results:

REGISTRY: PendingFileRenameOperations
> DELETE C:\Users\Blah\AppData\Local\Temp\_iu14D2N.tmp
> DELETE C:\Program Files\Workrave\lib\harpoon.dll
REGISTRY: PendingFileRenameOperations END.

2 items were found and reported.

I think a bug must have crept in. Many thanks for this very useful program.
