Description

If Smuxi installs GTK# on Windows a reboot is required, because changes to the PATH environment variable aren't effective. Maybe a hack in the nsis script to force the reload of PATH might fix the need for a boot.

Adding this to the installer might fixed the updated PATH issue:
SendMessage ${HWND_BROADCAST} ${WM_WININICHANGE} 0 "STR:Environment" /TIMEOUT=5000
