Re: [WiX-users] uninstall not removing files
There's a lot that could go wrong here. Start with this: http://robmensching.com/blog/posts/2003/10/18/Component-Rules-101 What's your exact command complete command line? Are you using REINSTALL= It's likely that it's not being removed because the sharing rules are broken (component guids) or you've set SharedDllRefCount in the file that's not being removed.

Re: [WiX-users] uninstall not removing files
From http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370568(VS.85).aspx "Nonidentical .msi files should not have the same package code. It is important to change the package code because it is the primary identifier used by the installer to search for and validate the correct package for a given installation. If a package is changed without changing the package code, the installer may not use the newer package if both are still accessible to the installer." Windows Installer caches .msi files.

Re: [WiX-users] uninstall not removing files
I think you'll need to describe your scenario in more detail. If you modify a package by adding a new file and attempt to install it, then it won't work if the previous version is already there - that ProductCode guid is already installed. Are you doing an upgrade? Or is this a brand new fresh install of your new setup? Note that if you have ever set the Permanent attribute of the component guid to true then it will not uninstall. Same with legacy sharing, so it makes a difference whether you're on an unspoiled test system or not. Use virtual machines!
