At times the custom action is failing. So because of that i am not able to uninstall the prouct either through ARP or through MSI. I even used ORCA to manually edit the MSI and removed the troublesome Custom action , but still the uninstall fails. Then i changed the produc GUID and let the older installation remain. This happened a no of times and now my ARP is cluttered with such failed apps. So my question is what is the best thing to do in such a scenario ? How to best develop a custom action which is going to be part of uninstall so that if the custom action fails i can still uninstall the product.
