Hi,
I know for installscript projects, if BATCH_INSTALL is true at the time of unisntall->reboot, the uninstallation of locked files occurs after reboot.
I think there is a dialog to show which files are locked, and i guess you can set BATCH_INSTALL = TRUE, then reboot.
Again im not sure if this willl work for your basic msi project as I used an Installscript project.
