Release 1.7.13 installer does not relaunch Windows Explorer after update

Release 1.7.13 installer does not relaunch Windows Explorer after update

Overview:
If you update and close apps when prompted by the installer, rather than
going the Ignore/Restart route, then Windows Explorer does not get
relaunched when the installer is finished. The user is left sitting there,
hoping everything is done, and has to go into Task Manager, and Run
"explorer.exe" manually.

Steps:
On Windows 7 Pro x64 (I have SP1 and all MS updates except Bing Desktop or
extra languages), I updated to the latest version of TortoiseSVN (1.7.13
x64) from an older version from a few months ago, and the installer
prompted me to close a few applications (Chrome, Windows Explorer, Outlook,
etc.) so I closed everything except Windows Explorer, then continued, and
it prompted me again to just close Windows Explorer. So I went into Task
Manager, and killed the "explorer.exe" process, then continued and the
installer was happy and finished without any more prompts. At the end it
finished and the window closed, but left me staring at my Windows desktop
background (it does not relaunch Windows Explorer).

Thank you,
Connor
