I did that,
<Component...>
<File ... Name="MyService.exe" >
</File>
<ServiceControl Id="MyService" Name="MyService.exe" Stop="uninstall"
Remove="uninstall" Wait="yes">
<ServiceArgument> /d "[INSTALLDIR]EF.G"</ServiceArgument>
</ServiceControl>
</Component>
I still get "file-in-use" popup when uninstall.(Stop service is happened after
CostFinilize, InstallValidate)

You should be able to just schedule the service to be stopped and no
file-in-use error should occur.

I have a service installed by my installer. I'll run after install. I want to
remove it before uninstall. Also don't want to get the "file in use" popup.

2. I just want to run it when uninstall. Is that possible?
Thanks,

1. Not as far as I know.
2. That doesn't make any sense to me. CostInitialize happens long before the
transaction that installs things happens.

Can I schedule a custom action that using the directory manager before
costinitialize?
If not, is there a way to run an application that installed by the msi before
costinitialize?
Thanks,
