Updating a product during system shutdown
I'm developing a installer in Basic MSI.
Due to security restrictions, i have to apply the product update during the system shutdown like it's done with microsoft updates.
Is there any way to do this?

I don't know of any way to do this within MSI. You can certainly schedule tasks to run at reboot by using the RunOnce registry key, or similar mechanisms, but I don't think that's quite what you're requesting. Windows Installer and Windows Update are very separate technologies.
