View source for Check whether system requires restart or not

{{PageAuthor|aman_ansari}}

== Description ==
Using this function you can determine whether your system requires a restart or not. This can be useful when you are running external setup applications or want to check whether previously installers applications require a restart.

To check whether your own installer requires a restart (when using /REBOOTOK parameters), use IfRebootFlag (see documentation).

== Usage ==
<highlight-nsis>
Push $R1
Call RestartRequired
Exch $R1
StrCmp $R1 "1" RestartRequired RestartNotRequired
</highlight-nsis>
