The link to install an uninstall link seems to be outdated:

http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/create_an_uninstall_shortcut.htm

Specifically  the registry entry does not exist. I am thinking it should be 
something like HKCU/Micosoft/Installer/Products. Also the application name 
doesn't seem to come into play. In the registry there is what looks like a GUID 
that is the key name. I am not sure where this value is derived.

Here is the exported key for an installed product:
