I am using wix to install a file and its shortcut. i have to use a non-advertised shortcut. i am also setting ALLUSERS=1 (I am using Win 2003 and wix 3.0) But i have the following queries: 1) Non advertised shortcuts require a registry entry under HKCU. So when some other user uninstalls the product, the file and the product are uninstalled , but the registry entry remains intact for all other users. I wish to remove this orphaned registry entry on uninstallation. 2) Can't i create a adveritsed shortcut and use a registry entry under HKLM as its keypath so that on uninstallation , no orphaned registry entries are left. 3) Also how does HKMU work? i tried to use Root=HKMU and
< Property Id="ALLUSERS" Value="1"/> But here i got ICE 57 warning: ICE57: Component 'ProductComponent' has both per-user data and a keypath that can be either per-user or per-machine. -- Best Regards.
