I don't think that is the problem...I need to provide same functionality when uninstalling from Programs and Features for when I uninstall through the MSI. I found in the logs the following:
MSI (s) (C0:08) [11:23:34:638]: Skipping action: UninstallWsp2010PowerShell (condition is false) The condition is: <![CDATA[REMOVE ~= "ALL"]]> which should be true when uninstalling(Executes from Programs and Features, but not from the "Remove" action of the msi). -----Original Message----- From: Karthick R [mailto:karthi...@syncfusion.com] Sent: 21 December 2011 10:18 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Removing through the UI mode does not prompt for privileges Hi Stelios, Check the InstallScope attribute for the package inside the product having the value as "perMachine" or "perUser" For a per-machine installation, the default installation location will be [ProgramFilesFolder][ApplicationFolderName] and the user will be able to change it in the setup UI. For a per-user installation, the default installation location will be [LocalAppDataFolder]Apps\[ApplicationFolderName] and the user will not be able to change it in the setup UI.

Subject: [WiX-users] Removing through the UI mode does not prompt for privileges Hello all, I have an installer built on wix 3.5.2519. It installs per machine and using WixUI_InstallDir ui. -When installing the product, it prompts the user for elevated privileges before installing. -When uninstalling via "Programs and Features", it prompts the same user for elevated privileges. -When uninstalling through the UI mode, no elevation is requested, and the uninstallation process does not complete successfully because of that. Is there something I have to set so that it prompts for elevation through the UI? I do not set anywhere the ALLUSERS anywhere. The only thing I do is set the installscope to permachine.
