I lack Windows command line structure knowledge, so if you need that perhaps someone can translate
this. But this is how I have been doing it in Linux, if the user does not have the required
permissions (admin) to run the program, just causing a 'restart' of the application.

<?php

//. this recompiles the exact command used for launch, flags options and all.
$argstr = implode(" ",$_SERVER['argv']);

$myMainWindow->hide();
$myMainWindow = null;

Gtk::main_quit();

//. all output must be silenced, and task must be
//. backgrounded, or else system will not return
//. and nothing happens to the main program.
system("{$argstr} &> /dev/null &");
exit(0);

//. bob

?>
