Hi all,
I am trying to remove the .net generated user settings files from my win form
application on uninstall, and am having some problems. I checked the archive
for this specific issue and id not find anything. I did find another post on
another blog that said developers have no control over these files and if you
needed it, to implement your own setting provider, which would give me control
over the location of these files.
I wanted to see if anyone has been able to manage this through wix natively
before embarking on this task.
Assuming my scenario creates random folders along the lines of "C:\Documents
and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Application
Data\APPNAME\RandomFolderName\user.config"
And: "USER" is the user name of the user, "APPNAME" is the name of my
application in the AssemblyCompany attribute in my AssemblyInfo file for the
app, and "RandomFolderName" appears to be an ap generated random folder name.
Am I correct in assuming the proper way to go about this is to nuke everything
below and including the "APPNAME" folder?
I have not figured out how to get the "USER" value. I thought it was with the
'PersonalFolder' property, but that does not seem to be doing anything for me.
Any help or direction pointing would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very
much.
Josh
