Hi,

Try using addStopProcessForUpdateRequest, or setStopProcessForUpdateRequest

http://doc.qt.io/qtinstallerframework/scripting-component.html#addStopProcessForUpdateRequest-method

Calling this at installation/update time will also result in a check in the uninstaller.

See

http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-creator/qt-creator.git/tree/dist/installer/ifw/packages/org.qtproject.qtcreator.application/meta/installscript.qs

for a real-world usage of this.

Regards

Kai
