I am having a problem unintsalling a patch. I am having the exact same problem
as described by Emma in the thread "Patch Uninstall Help'. I don't see a clue
how to resolve this. I have gone through the restrictions that can make patches
uninstallable. But none of them applies for me. Even the example patch given in
the tutorial is not uninstallable. Could anyone please help me here ?

Yes I have thank you, but none of them apply.
Has anyone else had issues uninstalling patches? I even tried out the
sample patch on the WIX tutorial site
http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson4.php and could not get it to uninstall
either -- has anyone else tried it and been able to?
The place to start is with a verbose log. Use /l*vx to get verbose info with
eXtra details useful for patching.

Subject: [WiX-users] Patch Uninstall Help
I am attempting to create a patch for my application, and I am able to
create the patch and install it successfully but when I try to uninstall
I receive the Windows Installer error - 1646 (Patch removal is not
supported). I have set the AllowRemoval attribute of the PatchMetadata
to 'yes', could someone please help me out with what I'm doing wrong?
Many Thanks
Emma.
