* **Electron-Builder Version**: 23.3.3 * **Node Version**: 16.16.0 * **Electron Version**: 19.0.10 * **Electron Type (current, beta, nightly)**: current * **Target**: Windows We are seeing an issue where `quitAndInstall()` quits the application but fails to install in one go on windows. Works fine on Mac which leads me to think the issue is within NsisUpdater. Logs below: ``` [2022-08-23 13:02:28.518] [info] installing update ... [2022-08-23 13:02:28.518] [info] Install on explicit quitAndInstall [2022-08-23 13:02:28.519] [info] Install: isSilent: false, isForceRunAfter: true [2022-08-23 13:02:28.519] [info] isAdminRightsRequired is set to true, run installer using elevate.exe [2022-08-23 13:02:28.590] [info] Update installer has already been triggered. Quitting application. ``` After this, the app quits but doesn't launch the installation process. Next startup launches the old version and installation process is then launched and completes successfully after manually quitting the application. Based on logs and a quick look at source-code, seems like `NsisUpdater::callUsingElevation()` fails silently somehow. https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/94982619c1c2131918171ae61dc676c77d6d769f/packages/electron-updater/src/NsisUpdater.ts#L135
