OK, I can do that, but now I'm seriously doubting the walue of Windows Installer.
I thought that it at least guarantees clean removal of whatever it installed. We had our own C executable that was installing and uninstalling our programs. It required maintenance effort, and I thought to move to Windows Instaler technology. Amount of time I had to put in developing Winfdows Installer solution way exceeds time I would've spent writing the same functionality using C.
