I am attempting to install SQL Server Express 2012. Th setup support rule to "restart computer" continues to fail.
Based on forum suggestions I tried to locate and change PendingFileRenameOperations under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager.
I am not able to locate PendingFileRenameOperations both when following the registry path and even searching at the HKEY levels.
Are there other suggestions for circumventing the failed "restart computer" rule?
Thank you for the help.

A string value named 'PendingFileRenameOperations' will be left in both
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Session Manager

Thank you for the help.
I am not able to locate 'PendingFileRenameOperations' in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Session Manager
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
The attached .doc has screen shots of each folder, plus results from searching HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. The full path is shown at the bottom of each screen shot.

The fix to my particular problem was at the bottom of this thread:
there is an second registry key, which will be checked:
"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\RebootRequired"
This one comes from WindowsUpdate and should not exist (also rename it like no_RebootRequired)
then try again by klicking the button "Re-run" (no need to restart the setup.exe)
