Windows Service Silent Update

11 bytes removed, 03:07, 1 September 2012
How the service works
The service logs all operations of the last update, as well as taking a backup of the last 10 update operations
before it. The install process and update processes will also be are logged separately. The logs live in %programdata%\Mozilla\logs.
Since the service executes an update via updater.exe in session 0, no UI is displayed. A UI could be displayed by running updater.exe with a user token instead, but to avoid permission problems on files, and inconsistencies in different OS versions and user types, the update will is always be run as session 0.
