Thanks for the update. That does sound plausible as I found that when it crashed both the old and new version were in ARP, to uninstall you have to manually remove the oldest version first, if you try to remove the newer one it crashed again.

Upgrading was the key. This is now fixed for the next build. For posterity, here's the comment I added when I resolved the bug: At the end of an upgrade, the new bundle tells the old bundle to go away, like a post-InstallFinalize major upgrade. That's the GUID package id. The new bundle doesn't have a record of the old bundle id, so it blows up when it's not found. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
