Bruno close-before-update note

For silent Bruno deployment on Windows, use the official Windows installer executable with the NSIS silent switch, for example bruno_*_x64_win.exe /S. Match detection to the install context you package; per-user installs commonly live under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\bruno.

Before managed updates, close the running Bruno desktop client. Machine and user-context Windows packages can return Exit Code 2 when Bruno is open, so include a Bruno-specific pre-close/conflicting-process step around bruno.exe. Official source: Bruno GitHub releases.

Official source: Bruno official downloads.

For managed Bruno deployments, pre-stage the Microsoft Visual C++ v14 Redistributable x64 runtime before installing or updating the Windows client. Treat the runtime as a package prerequisite for clean developer workstations.

Sources: Bruno official download/source, Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.

For managed Bruno updates, close Bruno before starting the Windows installer. The EXE x64 and per-user x64 packages can return Exit Code 2 when Bruno is open during update, so pre-close it or notify the user and rerun detection afterward. Source: official Bruno source.
