Help with Program, Simple Update

I need a simple but important update for my vb.net program. I have a POS system that sends updated prices to a networked computer. One part of my software is a server/administration program that runs a timer. When the timer hits zero, the software automatically updates a menuitem file and an update file (I choose the directory that contains the two files using an ini file associated with the admin program) The server/admin program is correctly updating the menuitem and update files when the timer reaches zero 99% of the time. For some reason, sometimes the files aren't updating. The update I need is for the server/admin program to also update the files 10 seconds after the timer hits zero. So it will update the files a total of two times. Once at zero and once 10 seconds after (the timer restarts). My idea is that if the file updates twice in a row, if it misses the first update the second one will work. If you can help please let me know, Thanks ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
