Hey Sean, Any files created outside of the file list in the File table or not listed in the RemoveFile table (not sure, might be another place as well) will not be managed by Windows Installer. Of course it would be best if your custom action removed the files it created before during uninstall but, understandably, there are times when this can't be done. I would look into the <RemoveFile<http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_removefile.htm>/> element to do what you are looking for.
