And yes, just to be clear, once I added a component under the INSTALLDIR
(not one of it's alias) the INSTALLDIR was also correctly preserved for
uninstall.

Hi Michael,
Thanks again for the explanation.
Could you also tell me please what are the following lines of code
actually do?:
Thanks!

so it looks like redefining
MyApp.Binaries to be the INSTALLDIR value. Am I assuming correct?

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I think in both cases the
INSTALLDIR should have the correct value (Z:\Program Files\...) on
uninstall.

Hi Pally,
Thanks a lot for your answers. Actually in a major upgrade the last used
directory used for installation is shown in the dialog, but the user
could still _change_ it, so I think I'll have to go with your first
answer. I will investigate on how to do it.

Hi Sean,
Would be great if you would post the code here. There are so many

external custom actions as they can't be controlled during rollbacks.
And still, why does this work when REP is after InstallFinalize?

The problem is that I don't know how to do that? Can someone pls, taking
in account the above lines of code, tell me how and what do I need to
change to follow this instruction?
Thank you,

component is correctly written with it's
condition and even though one can see in the log that
UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE is set, still later in the log one can see that
the component is executed, so I would say this is a MSI problem.

And I'm not sure how one can do that when:
as from what I read, the product is completely removed first so his logo
will be gone.
