Whenever you install a setup program, the setup installs some dll files required for the working of the software you want. The dll files are something like a function which is called whenever an event happens. These dll files could get effect only when you restart the system. And also the system registry has to be updated to indicate the computer that a new software has been installed and all the details about the software will be stored there, which will be used when you update the software or uninstall the software.

For eg. if you update your Internet explorer, you should close it and open it again so that to use the new properties obtained in that. Likewise if you install a setup program you have to restart the computer so that the new software will take effect.

And if you do not restart your PC, you may not obtain some properties currently but that will be ok whenever you restart it later or shut down the computer and again boot it.

Restarting loads a new copy of the software and all the drivers. Some dll drivers only load when the PC is rebooted.

If you don't reboot, chances are you won't be able to use that new program. It might work, but crash unexpectedly.

It's a pain, but it's the only way.

You need to restart your PC after installing some Softwares because, there are some system files to be updated and a few files to be registered on your PC.

It's kind of like refreshing a page. The new components are added to your registry.

If you don't restart nothing happens, you just can't run the program until you do.

Good Luck

Although windows is the predominant Operating system out there, its much more flawed than others. It was coded badly(IMO), and thus many things such as a reboot are necessary when loading new software. Unlike Unix based systems, where many of the same things can be accomplished without a reboot.

when u install a software number of dll(data link library) files will get added to ur system. these dlls should work with ur system. if u restart ur system the dlls and the necessary files which are related to ur software will be placed in the system32 folder in the c drive. this system32 folder plays a main role in ur system. it runs the dll files and the necessary exe files when u execute ur software.

conclusion: for every installation, the system checks the system32 folder whether the necessary dlls are ready to execute or not and when booting the system, it does the job.

Some programs rely on registry settings, others like to have an applet running in the "tray" (down by your clock), necessitating restart.

your computer must read the program you installed
this is why you have to reboot
how can it know that you just installed the program with out doing so

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
