I tried, but using FileId or putting FileCopy under a File will delete
my file on uninstall and not using FileId silently did absolutely
nothing and didn't show anything in the log. Basically I couldn't get it
to work. Maybe a bug?
Thx

I have a configuration file config/Config.xml, that I managed to

CopyFile - it never ran without a FileId or forced a file to be
uninstalled otherwise. I did it with a custom action, but that's
admitting failure :)
Couldn't you install Config_Original.xml and use CopyFile on that id?
