How to implent: Uninstall shell extensions without killing explorer.exe?

Hi all,

I am writing a shell extension and gets some problem for users to uninstall the product without killing explorer. AFAIK, explorer locks the shellext dll, and one can't delete this dll while Explorer is running, even if you have unregistered the shell extension.

But someone told me TSVN can be totally uninstalled without killing explore.exe. I took a try and it's true. I tried to read the source code of TSVN but failed to find useful information. Can you guys drop me a hint on how to achieve this?

BTW, Sorry for post a message not much related to the dev of TSVN itself.
