If you read my reply you'll see I never mentioned "user accounts" anywhere. My questions was "Why are you storing user specific data under the installation directory instead of somewhere like My Documents or CommonAppData as per Microsoft's platform guidelines?".

The folder hierarchy is just a example. My application has nothing to do with user accounts. Thanks for the suggestion of using wix-contrib. At first I read the code and thought it was easy for me to translate it to a C# version CA. Anyway, I add version.lib to the projects, and get wix-contrib build successfuly. However, when I use it in my project, it seems does not work (still due to the version issue). In my code, I have xmlns:contri="http://wixtoolset.org/wixcontrib/2008"; And for the folders I want to delete completely, <Directory Id="dirA51B01A2E638149A2E0381A7B1B1FA0A" Name="Foo"> <Component Id="cmpC736EC12CD6A4FF8C43A5AB7005B0C22" Guid="{B6E6C8AF-EC5D-4A0C-B718-0B6823632C92}" KeyPath="yes"> <CreateFolder /> <contri:RemoveFolderEx On="uninstall" /> </Component> The log is: Action 11:29:04: RemoveFoldersEx. Action start 11:29:04: RemoveFoldersEx. RemoveFoldersEx: Error 0x80070715: Failed to get file version of custom action dll CustomAction RemoveFoldersEx returned actual error code 1603 but will be translated to success due to continue marking Action ended 11:29:04: RemoveFoldersEx. Return value 1. Any idea about the failure?
