Hi,

I am new in WiX and I would like to ask you about some issue. I have
developed simple msi package which installs add-in file. The installation
directory path is determined according to registry value. The path depends
on registry value of foreign application. If the application was uninstalled
it would cause trouble during add-in uninstallation. In this case the
registry value doesn't exist.  

Therefore I decided to simulate that situation. I installed an add-in
successfully. Then I only changed the registry value
(HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Excel\InstallRoot\Path) to fictional
path. I expected the add-in wouldn't be uninstalled due to different path.
However, the add-in was uninstalled successfully. The file was removed from
right folder. I was able to repair an installation too. It seems the new
path is ignored in case of uninstallation process or repair process. Is it
correct behaviour?

Thank you for your explanation,

Radek
