Default Ways to trigger a self-repair

Has anyone ever found a way to trigger a self-repair without running
an advertised shortcut? I'd like to prompt a repair that will be quick
and this is the only way I can find to do it, however not all users
start our app from the advertised shortcut.
Any ideas?

A key file in a component. The repair is required as I am removing the component condition the component previously had, so that it will install in all cases. If I change add component attibute 'transitive' in my patch targetthen causing a repair from a shortcut puts this component back in, which is what I want.
