MSI-installer stops because of explorer.exe has to be updated

Hello

AdminStudio 9.5 is installed on a Windows XP 32-bit system.
Currently repackaging applications to Windows 7 32-bit system.

When i try to capture a simple filecopy in Windows 7, and create the MSI-package with AdminStudio and then try to deploy it to a Windows 7 system again, I get a warning about that explorer has to be updated but are currently in use.
This is my own translation, since the warning is in my language.
"
Files are in use

A couple of files has to be updated, but they are currently in use.

Following applications has files needed to be updated of this installation:
Explorer

Choose between:

  • Close automatically and try restart the application.
    [ ] Do not close the application. (Restart is required.)
    "

    Is this becuase i open windows while im copy etc?
    Is there some way to get around this problem?

    Thanks,
    Johan

    Hi There,

    This sounds a lot like a bug that was resolved in the latest version of AdminStudio.

    I'd recommend upgrading if you have a maintenance plan, and see if this issue still persists. For reference, here's the issue described in the AdminStudio 11 release notes:
