Yes, I saw that. The logs seemed to me to say they were removed, but the
files are in fact still there.
Any ideas?
I took the Chapter 1 example out of the WiX 3.6 Developer's Guide book,
built it and ran it on the same system and it installed and uninstalled
properly, so the system isn't fundamentally broken. If nothing uninstalled
I would have no problem believing the system is broken - they've been
hacked on for years by people who are more comfortable with Unix - but that
isn't the case here.
