Our IT Support Dept. releases an internal software product that I write via group policy.
Is it possible to force an update of a particular group policy software install without asking the users to log off and log back on to their machines?

Best Answer
The software cannot install/upgrade unless the user reboots his computer (Computer objects in GPO gets applied before the user can log on). Maybe Vista can do this, I'm not sure - but with XP you really do have to reboot.
