How does Path of Building behave?

Hi,

Current Verison: 2.57.0-5f1f8637

When I have downloaded the latest update and click "Update Ready" PoB closes and opens a UpdateApply.lua window and hangs until it is manually closed.

How to reproduce the issue

No response

PoB for PoE1 build code

Research direction

Start with UpdateApply.lua and reproduce the Windows update flow from version 2.57.0-5f1f8637 by selecting “Update Ready.” Trace where the updater hangs, then verify that the update completes and Path of Building relaunches without leaving the UpdateApply.lua window open.
