xplorer2_uc.exe continues to run after I've closed Xplorer2

Why does xplorer2_uc.exe continue to run after I've stopped running xplorer2? (something to do with accessing system files in the install) I know I've read the answer to my question before but i can't find it.

Thanks John. I'm not sure this is exactly where I read this in the fist place but the message was the same. I'm not sure why xplorer2 ever needs to "stay resident" but at least I know how I can over ride this feature with the registry editor. Cheers,

it stays resident because next time you want to open a folder you want to do it faster, no?

This caused a problem when I tried to install the update to version 1.8.0.1. Even though I quit all instances of Xplorer before running the installation program, I got an error message saying the file "Xplorer2_UC.exe" could not be open for writing.

The workaround was killing the process in Windows Task Manager and then running the installation again. Shouldn't the installation program take care of this automatically by killing the process so no write access problem occurs? Or am I doing something wrong?

Have a good one,

the installation program does that but it will work only from now onwards
