There is no real way to work around this. We've tried everything we know
to ensure that the NVDAHelper dll is unloaded properly, but
unfortunately, Windows just seems to sometimes hold on to this and won't
let it go. Please try to quit all open applications. Note that this dll
shouldn't change too much now that it has stabilised, so you could just
keep this one and not replace it. The installer doesn't replace the dll
unless it has changed and it will request a reboot automatically if
required.
