In use files overwrite on Linux
We are using install speed folder action to copy files on target system. On Linux if the files are already in use during install, installer fails to force overwrite files. Is there a setting which allows to force overwrite files. The only option i can find is "Replace in-use files after restart" which is specific to Windows.

Re: In use files overwrite on Linux
We are already using "Always Overwrite" action but it fails to overwrite the file when its in use. A option like force overwrite or delete and overwrite file will be helpful.
