Updating application with a mounted RAM disk
6 posts
Is it possible to update RAM Disk application while it has a mounted RAM disk, or does one need to quit the program to perform the upgrade?
You can install the new version over the existing one and reboot (or reboot later, as convenient). It's really that simple.
When I updated to 25.12, I didn't reboot immediately, and was told to reboot twice. Was this actually necessary?
Two reboots are required because the first reboot will replace the driver's SYS files, which are otherwise locked by Windows. The second reboot will load the updated files. This is only required when upgrading. A fresh installation will work without a restart.
I found the the user interface was updated after the first reboot. If that's all that was updated, is a second reboot still necessary?
Regrading the second reboot, does one need to log in, and wait for all programs to load, before rebooting, or could one reboot from the login screen instead?
