>From Windows Installer documentation: "The InstallUISequence table lists actions that are executed when the top-level INSTALL action is executed and the internal user interface level is set to full UI or reduced UI. The installer skips the actions in this table if the user interface level is set to basic UI or no UI." On uninstall basic UI level is set, so InstallUISequence does not run. If you want some action to be executed in any UI you have to add it to InstallExecuteSequence. (On installation user can use '/q' flag for msiexec, and InstallUISequence also will be skipped).

I've put it in the UIInstallSequence thus: <InstallUISequence> <Custom Action="MyUninstallAction" After='ExecuteAction'>Installed</Custom> </InstallUISequence> But it doens't seem to run. What I've seen implies that the UI sequence isn't run on an add/remove programs uninstall. Is that really the case? Really appreciate any help. Thanks, AK.
