Thanks Rob,
Just curious, I couldn't find any documentation on this - in a wix MSI,
features contain components, and that defines which components are actually
installed.
In a WiX Merge, there is no concept of a 'feature', so what _is_ included? ALL
defined components?

Only Components. At merge time a Merge Module's contents get wired to a
Directory and Feature. MSI SDK has a lot of detail about Merge Modules.

You can use the following vbscript:
Function generatePassword()
Dim NUMLOWER, NUMUPPER, LOWERBOUND, UPPERBOUND, LOWERBOUND1,
UPPERBOUND1, SYMLOWER, SYMUPPER
Dim newPassword, count, pwd
Dim pCheckComplex, pCheckComplexUp, pCheckComplexLow, pCheckComplexNum,
pCheckComplexSym, pCheckAnswer, PASSWO
Verbose log file should show you the Components being uninstalled. That's the
place to start.
